Passengers who have bookings for the affected flights will be contacted individually to offer them travel alternatives.

We encourage passengers to follow the recommendations issued by health institutions and regularly wash their hands as well as follow other basic hygiene principles. According to World Health Organization, there is very little risk of any communicable disease being transmitted on board an aircraft. To further decrease the risk, World Health Organization encourages travellers who are unwell to delay their journey until they have recovered.


airBaltic offers an opportunity to change the date free of charge for travel by December 31 for all existing reservations made by March 9 with travel dates until March 31, 2020. Date change has to be made before the original departure date. If the original fare is no longer available, the corresponding fare difference must be paid.
