I'd love to boost those figures a bit more by coming to visit again, but I'm back home now. And I don't like to bet. I know of 2 certain passengers for Vilnius, though: Dramblys and his wife will be coming for Christmas!

Ryanair from 9th January starts new line - Dublin - Riga. They hope to get some 80 000 people per year on this line. Air Baltic and Aer Lingus are their competitors on this line.

Good idea ,but it's a bit too late. 80% of people, that wanted to work in Ireland, have gone to Ireland in last years, so, i wiil be honest- i hope Ryanair will have no luck with that destination.

Indeed, Ryanair from Dublin flies mostly to British cities + Mediterranean resorts. Beer lovers will be satisfied

AH, just about 41 days to go and counting. Thanks for reminding me WH!

Vilniaus Oro Uostas can definitely confirm an additional 2 passengers in December.

Riga seem to be the king of the air in the Baltics! I'm glad to see that. I guess that one of the three airports will gain some sort of "hub status" (at least for European flights) in the future, and I guess it's gonna be Riga as it looks now...

You never know, things sometimes change with unexpected speed. But I hope that Riga will not experience any serious problems.
In Scandinavia it is interesting that all capitals have got similar turnover although Copenhagen seems to be a bit more like hub

My sister is working as other 30 000 latvians in irland now. So she will be definitely one of the customers of teh new Riga Dublin route. It is as I understand now the cheapest possible way to get from Dublin to Riga.

Most of the poeple working in Irland have friends and relatives in Latvia and they regularly travel back. So i think this new rout was logical and will have many many passengers. I bought already ticket for my sister from Dublin to Riga with airBaltic in December and in January Riga - Dublin with Ryanair.

I was among those happy poeple who were quick enough to buy these very cheap tickets to Barcelona from Riga with airBaltic. You won't believe Riga-Barcelona-Riga both way all inclusive price 14 lats (ca 20 EUR) My best purchase ever
