Baltic Outlook

July 2008

Editorial

Riga has been successfully establishing itself as one of the major focus points in the Baltic. Its geographic position, lying right in the middle of a rapidly developing region, combined with other factors such as a well developed infrastructure, a fully westernized legislative framework, good living conditions, etc. makes it a natural place for doing business. Given its historical treasures it is also an exciting city for tourists. The Latvian countryside, is something many foreigners still have to discover.

Hotels online
As you may have noticed, if you buy an airline ticket to Riga via airBaltic’s website, you can already book a hotel in Riga at a very attractive price. The excellent Islande Hotel was first to join the scheme but now we are delighted to announce that others are also joining, namely the Hotel Valdemars in Riga and the Holiday Inn and Europa City Hotel in Vilnius.

Linking Scandinavia with the East
The flight schedule that has evolved between Riga and many Scandinavian and Western European cities is very attractive with two or more flights a day not uncommon on some of the routes. Simultaneously, over the past few years airBaltic has developed a growing network in Russia, Ukraine, Central Asia and the Caucasus. Put the two together and you get Riga as an ideal transfer point linking East and West.

Choose your own seat with web check-in
The days of getting to the airport hours earlier than necessary in order to make sure you don’t get given a seat at the very last row are over! Thanks to airBaltic’s state-of-the-art online check-in system you can choose your exact seat from the comfort of your armchair at home, well in advance of your flight. A special screen shows you which seats are still available, from midday the day before your flight takes off, so jump the queues at check-in by printing off your own boarding pass ( just don’t forget to take it with you!).
