“Both of our aircraft have entered full commercial operations, servicing our passengers just like any other airBaltic aircraft. The smooth operational performance is complemented by a lot of positive feedback that we receive from our customers about the improved flying experience,” CEO Martin Gauss said in a statement.

AirBaltic’s fleet also includes 12 Bombardier Q400s and 13 Boeing 737s.
