Latvian airline Airbaltic has entered into a codeshare agreement with Maltese national carrier Air Malta.
Air Malta will place its code KM on direct flights between Malta and Riga operated by Airbaltic, as well as connecting flights between Malta and the Baltics. Meanwhile, Airbaltic will put its code BT on services from Riga, Vilnius and Tallinn to Malta, as well as to Catania via common gateways.
Martin Gauss, CEO of Airbaltic, said: “The new codeshare agreement will improve Airbaltic services between Malta and the Baltics, allowing passengers to connect every day on this route via such common gateways as Vienna, Munich, Brussels, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, London, Geneva and Zurich, among others.”
Paul Sies, CCO of Air Malta, added: “This agreement is yet another milestone for Air Malta in its growth strategy and widening its network. We are rapidly changing, transforming our business model to a hybrid carrier whilst rapidly increasing our frequencies on existing routes; we are opening new destinations and adding partnerships to the network.”
