airBaltic and Etihad Airways have commenced direct services to Riga from Abu Dhabi.
The inaugural ceremony at Riga International Airport in Latvia was attended by Latvian Prime Minister, government officials, airline executives, business leaders and travel agents. The event also officially kicked off a new Etihad Airways-airBaltic codeshare partnership.
Latvian Prime Ministir Vladis Dombrovskis, said: “This direct flight will open up a range of business and leisure opportunities, which previously never existed. It will support trade development between Latvia and the rest of the world, increase tourism in both directions, and result in a range of new connection options for customers of both airlines.”
