airBaltic expands its offer in Poland. This is the second connection
The new airBaltic offer is a response to the growing interest in the carrier's services in Poland. In a press release, the airlines emphasized that the connection will not only improve travel between the capitals of Poland and Latvia, but will also enable convenient transfers at the largest airport in the Baltic countries, which provides access to Estonia, Lithuania, Finland and Scandinavia. Mantas Vrubliauskas, vice-president of the airBaltic route network, noted that the new flights are another step in strengthening relations between Poland and Latvia.
Warsaw – Riga is the second connection of the Latvian carrier with Poland. Currently, airBaltic serves the Krakow – Vilnius route, with flights operating twice a week.
