Martin Gauss, President and CEO of airBaltic: “The first half of 2023 has surpassed our expectations, driving airBaltic towards strong commercial performance. We have been recording a strong summer season so far, with each passing month showcasing improvements with an upward trend. In comparison to the first six months of 2022, we see significant growth in preliminary revenues, as well as passenger numbers and performed flights. Looking ahead, our target and ambition remains to achieve EUR 700 million in revenue and a substantial increase in passenger numbers – 4.4 million by the end of 2023.”

Furthermore, our primary focus for the future remains to be the leading connectivity provider to and from the home cities of Riga, Tallinn, Vilnius, and Tampere. Here airBaltic has strengthened its positions and is committed to enhancing passenger experience and making a significant contribution to the economy,” Gauss added.
