Christophe Viatte, Chief Commercial Officer of airBaltic: “With up to three daily flights each way, airBaltic offers a perfect service for both business and leisure travellers. Our Norwegian customers tell us that Rīga is not only appealing for business ventures, holding seminars and conferences, but, with its spas, restaurants and shopping opportunities, it is also an ideal city break. For our Latvian customers Oslo is the entry point for exploring Norway, enjoying nature tourism in its fjords and mountains, and a convenient service to visit friends and relatives.”

Elīna Viša received a gift from airBaltic upon arrival in Rīga - two business class tickets to any of airBaltic‘s 60 destinations in Europe, the CIS and the Middle East.
