airBaltic has celebrated 20 years of connecting its home base of Riga (Latvia) to Munich (Germany).
Over the past two decades, Germany has consistently been among the airline’s key markets, and airBaltic has offered customers flying between the two countries a wide range of travel options for leisure, business, and onward connections.
Mantas Vrubliauskas, VP of network management at airBaltic: “Munich has long been one of the cornerstones of our network, consistently ranking among our most demanded destinations with steadily increasing passenger numbers.
“As a gateway to Bavaria and a major European hub, it plays a vital role in serving both leisure and business travellers.
“We now serve Munich up to 21 times per week, making it easier than ever to travel between Southern Germany and the Baltic countries.”
Oliver Dersch, senior vice president of aviation at Munich Airport: “Celebrating the 20th Anniversary of the airBaltic Riga-Munich flight, we are looking at a real success story of an excellent example airline-airport partnership in joint route development.
“Since 2005 more than 1.5 million people already benefited from the link between Latvia and the Bavarian gateways to the world.
“Over the years airBaltic has also added Vilnius and Tallinn to our network. Thank you airBaltic for 20 years of close friendship and partnership.”
airBaltic connects Riga to Munich with up to two daily flights, providing its passengers with two service classes – Economy and Business Class.
Ticket prices are starting from €95 in Economy Class and €2991 in Business Class one-way.
The airline also provides direct service from Munich to Tallinn (Estonia), and Vilnius (Lithuania), with up to five weekly flights operating between the both cities.
Since the airline’s first flight on this route in April 2005, airBaltic has carried more than 1.5 million passengers and operated over 17 thousand flights between the two cities.
In total, airBaltic operates flights from Riga to five destinations in Germany – Berlin, Dusseldorf, Frankfurt, Hamburg, and Munich.
The airline offers over 10 direct routes connecting the Baltic States to various destinations in Germany, strengthening connectivity between the two regions.
airBaltic operates nearly 130 routes from Riga, Tallinn, Vilnius, Tampere, and, seasonally, Gran Canaria, offering connections to a wide range of destinations in the airline’s route network in Europe, the Middle East, North Africa, and the Caucasus region.
