On 1 June, airBaltic will launch a new route linking the Estonian capital of Tallinn with the Swedish capital, Stockholm.
According to Tero Taskila, chief commercial officer of airBaltic, “More than 3 million tourists from Scandinavian countries visit Estonia each year. We clearly see that these markets are underserved and require more direct connections to Estonia. By introducing the Tallinn–Stockholm route, airBaltic is making a strategic step. We will serve seven direct routes from Tallinn, offer seven daily flights to Riga, and seventy seven onward destinations via Riga in Europe, CIS and the Middle East.”
The new route will operate from Monday to Friday, with no weekend service.
