airBaltic: 2020 the 'toughest year commercial aviation has yet seen'

8 January, 2021

airBaltic CEO Martin Gauss stated (08-Jan-2021) 2020 "will go in history as the toughest year commercial aviation has yet seen". He added that while the carrier was able to maintain essential connectivity for Riga and the Baltics for most of 2020, a "significant part" of GDP reduction in the region can be attributed to limitations on air traffic. "It is crucial for the future development of the Baltic region that airBaltic returns to its growth path following the successful control of the pandemic", Mr Gauss concluded. [more - original PR]
