Latvian airline airBaltic
will launch a new route between Riga and Palma de Mallorca, Spain, on 1 June
2014. The new route will offer convenient connections between the two cities
and beyond to destinations in the Baltic region, Scandinavia, Russia and the
CIS countries.
Reklāma
Martin Gauss, Chief Executive Officer of airBaltic: “Our customer is in focus, when deciding new routes for
the summer, and adjusting the existing routes to best meet the demand. Our customers
appreciate warm-weather holidays on the Mediterranean, as we have seen strong
interest in our offering a year ago.
For the upcoming summer season we will discontinue our Riga-Heviz
Balaton route, recording somewhat weaker demand; this move makes aircraft
capacity available for the Riga-Palma de Mallorca service for our customers
travelling between the two cities and onwards to destinations such as St.Petersburg,
Helsinki, Stockholm, Oslo, Vilnius, Tallinn.”
