OREANDA-NEWS. September 14, 2010. The national carrier Estonian Air that already is flying between Vilnius and Amsterdam will on Oct. 31 launch the Vilnius-Stockholm service.

"Stockholm is at the moment the destination with the biggest potential that is not covered by direct flights out of Vilnius," Estonian Air president and CEO Andrus Aljas said. The airline's expansion in Lithuania will take place in cooperation with partner SAS, he added.

Estonian Air will operate the Vilnius-Stockholm service on a code-share basis with SAS with six weekly flights on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays. The flights will depart from Vilnius at 6:40 p.m. and from Stockholm at 7:45 p.m.
