The ACMI and charter provider Getjet now has another offshoot: On November 30, 2022, the Latvian Ministry of Transport presented the AOC and operating license for Getjet Airlines Latvia.

The "parent house" is located in the neighboring country of Lithuania and specializes in the provision of ACMI and charter services. With the branch in Latvia, the aim is to further expand this segment and also to work for tour operators from Riga and other Latvian airports.

Rolands Ramins, Head of GetJet Airlines Latvia, emphasizes that the cooperation with the Latvian authorities in obtaining the certificate was excellent. Overall, all senior management are grateful for the efforts made by the team and its stakeholders since the airline's inception in 2022.

“Establishing a new airline in Latvia is a strategic step that opens up new growth opportunities for our company. GetJet Airlines Latvia, together with its Lithuanian counterpart, will create strategic business synergies that will enable it to realize the potential of charter service across the region,” said Darius Viltrakis, CEO of GetJet Aviation Holdings.

Additional aircraft are to be registered on the Latvian AOC, with which the group of companies would like to grow in the coming year. It is currently expected that charter and ACMI demand will remain high in 2023. So far, however, no information has been given about possible customers.

"As an Air Operator's Certificate (AOC) holder, we are well positioned to develop many new opportunities for business growth and to leverage our experience, market knowledge and the strength of our team to achieve maximum results with our partners," says Getjet-Latvia- Roland Ramins boss.

The Group fleet consists of Boeing 737 and Airbus A320 aircraft. The Getjet Group has been on the market since 2016 and flies for tour operators and other airlines, among others. Customers include Spicejet, Finnair, Lot, Norwegian, Corendon and Wizz Air.
