The two aircraft hangars, covering a total of 3 800 square meters, have been designed for easy disassembly and relocation if or when required, providing airBaltic with a practical solution to support its growing operations. Both of them are engineered specifically for northern climates, ensuring reliable operation throughout the entire year.

These will be the third and the fourth airBaltic hangars at RIX Riga Airport, joining the two existing ones – one with a single maintenance line and another with three lines, which is one of the largest and the most modern aircraft hangars in the region.

airBaltic operates more than 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.
