OREANDA-NEWS.  Martin Sedlacky, Board Member of airBaltic: “As a Slovak national myself working for the Latvian airline, I was very thrilled to see all partners working together to connect the two airports for the benefit of people. People of Latvia, the Baltic region, Scandinavia, Russia and CIS will have an opportunity to access the beautiful region of High Tatras, a low cost alternative of the Alps. People from the region will benefit from the development of tourism and also convenient access to all places served by airBaltic.”

The new one-weekly return flights will offer convenient connections between Riga and the High and Low Tatras from and to destinations in the Baltic region, Scandinavia and Russia during the three-year period.”
