Riga and Vilnius. Today, January 29, 2026, Latvian airline airBaltic celebrates the 30th anniversary of its route between Riga, Latvia, and Vilnius, Lithuania. This marked the airline’s first nonstop service linking the two Baltic capitals, offering customers fast, seamless, and reliable connectivity between Latvia and Lithuania, while also providing passengers from Lithuania with access to a wide range of destinations across airBaltic’s route network in Europe and beyond via RIX Riga Airport.
