Welcome aboard
MARTIN ALEXANDER GAUSS
Chief Executive Officer airBaltic
Dear Customer,
We thank you for choosing to fly
with airBaltic during the busiest
travel season. As a result, we
have achieved the fastest growth
across all of the Baltic markets
and now outpace the largest
carriers operating in Latvia, Estonia
and Lithuania.
We will amply reward your
preference for airBaltic in the
coming months. Firstly, we will
continue to offer consistently
lower average fares. You will
notice these in our frequent sales
campaigns, which feature a variety
of travel opportunities for this and
early next year.
Secondly, we will keep improving
our excellent network of flights for
both business and leisure travellers.
With over 40,000 airBaltic flights
every year into and out of the Baltic
Sea region, our customers have by
far the greatest choice compared
to any other airline. This means
convenient flights for business trips
to such cities as London, Moscow
and Stockholm, and for leisurely
escapes to Milan, Munich, Paris and
many other destinations – 60 in all.
Thirdly, we are taking a great
leap in technological advancement.
Our customers will be the first
in the world to enjoy our stateof-the-art
Bombardier CS300
jets. These brand-new aircraft
will revolutionise the passenger
experience with wider seats, larger
windows, high-capacity overhead
bins, better lavatories, ambient
lighting and other enhancements
that you can explore further
in this magazine.
Did you know that the first
Bombardier CS300 aircraft will
touch down in Riga this month?
Painted in Bombardier livery, it is
arriving before the new airBaltic
CS300 jets to test various aspects
of operation and pave the way
for the new fleet’s smooth
entry into service.
Thank you for flying airBaltic and
have a great trip!
Yours,
Martin Alexander Gauss
