From a total of 232 cities in Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania, 48 winners will be selected, 16 from each country, who will be immortalized on the sky steeds of airBaltic. Of course, the capitals Riga, Tallinn and Vilnius are not missing, but significantly smaller cities also have the opportunity.
Vote for your favorite is possible once a day until the end of the competition on August 22. airBaltic airlines, perhaps a little recklessly, or on the contrary very thoughtfully in terms of marketing, left the voting open not only to the three countries, but to the whole world. Czechs are starting to forward the competition to each other via social networks and believe in the success of their favorite in a competition full of famous names.

Names that do not go unnoticed
A town in the northeast of the country with 917 permanent residents named Püssi, which evokes the English name for female genitals, clearly leads to Tuesday within Estonia. It also significantly beats the capital Tallinn. However, the Czech black horse, the small town of Kunda, is just below Estonia’s top 16 with 730 votes, while voters have a total of 47 options to choose from in this country. However, it can be expected that it will rise sharply thanks to the Czech initiative.

The port city of Kunda is located in the very north of Estonia on the banks of the river of the same name. It has around three thousand permanent residents and is located roughly 100 kilometers from the capital. In the town, whose history of settlement dates back to the 7th millennium BC, today the cement factory with the cement museum is a prominent feature.
In Latvia, the city of Daugavpils consistently leads the way, while the capital Riga is third. In Lithuania, the 12,000-person spa town of Druskininkai is headed for triumph, while the capital, Vilnius, is currently fourth.
It can be expected that if the tiny Estonian town works its way into one of the planes, Czech aviation enthusiasts will certainly want to request the airlines to put this plane on the Riga-Prague route. And many Czechs would probably go to Riga just for a photo with this plane.
