Latvian airline Air Baltic has started 2025 with strong results. In January 2025, the airline carried a total of 327.500 passengers, an increase of 14 percent compared to the previous year. This represents the highest passenger traffic for January in the airline's history. Flight load factor also increased significantly, reaching 75,4 percent, an increase of 3,6 percentage points compared to the previous year.
Martin Gauss, President and CEO of air Baltic, was pleased with the results and stressed that more and more passengers are choosing the airline as their preferred carrier. With extensive connectivity in Europe and beyond and the introduction of free high-speed internet from SpaceX Starlink on board, air Baltic is optimistic about the future. The company expects continued strong growth in passenger numbers.
In the whole of 2024, Air Baltic had already set records with 8,3 million passengers and more than 73.000 flights. The airline has thus exceeded its pre-pandemic figures and established itself as a leading provider in the region.
