In the 2022/23 winter flight schedule, Swiss will deploy six Airbus A220-300s operated by Air Baltic on the European route network. The local unions are not happy with this deal and are up in arms about it. Now the first routes on which the Latvians will fly for the Lufthansa subsidiary are known.

Currently, Air Baltic is, among other things, for Eurowings, Eurowings Discover and SAS in ACMI deployment.
