AirBaltic Staves off Airport Crisis, For Now
Latvian air carrier airBaltic narrowly escaped having its flights shut down at Riga Airport on Friday afternoon by meeting the airport's demand for an upfront payment for services.
A Riga Airport press representative confirmed that airBaltic made prepayments for the next seven days, and could therefore continue its flights as scheduled, reported LETA.
On Thursday, media reported that the airport had threatened to cut off services to airBaltic at 4 p.m. Friday if prepayment was not received by noon.
The conflict stems from a long running dispute between the two parties over airport tariffs. Riga Airport filed a lawsuit against airBaltic over more than 7 million euros in unpaid fees.
For its part, airBaltic says it lodged a court complaint against the airport for more than 9 million euros in damages, claiming that the airport charges Irish rival Ryanair a much smaller tariff of only one euro per aircraft, while airBaltic pays 500 euros. A statement from airBaltic on Thursday said that the airline decided to suspend its payments to Riga Airport and demanded that the situation be resolved.
Riga Airport's press representative said that because airBaltic refused its latest settlement offer, the airport would now provide services to the airline only on a prepayment basis.

Io sono arrivato al settore E, quello coi fingers, ambiente raccolto, ordinato, funzionale, design nordico, ampia scelta di bar... cose che si sognano la maggior parte dei nostri aeroporti. Forse solo Venezia in questo senso è competitiva
Che vuoi che sia, solo 500 volte di più per aereo. Hanno il coraggio pure di lamentarsi.
Mentre continua la diatriba Air Baltic - Aeroporto di Riga, pare che BT introdurrà il servizio di noleggio iPad (e relativi contenuti) per i passeggeri nei prossimi mesi:

Questa settimana ho volato da MXP a RIX con Air Baltic (uno degli ultimi voli prima dello spostamento a LIN).
La cosa singolare è stata lo sbarco tramite bus: un bus alla volta, quando il primo si è riempito gli altri passeggeri nel frattempo sbarcati sono rimasti lì fuori sotto la pioggia ad aspettare il successivo (che si è appropinquato quando l'altro ha fatto manovra ed è ripartito).
Certo che se questo è il servizio che fornisce l'aeroporto, fanno bene a lamentarsi delle tasse...

Succede anche a BGY solo un bus e gli altri pax stanno sul piazzale ad aspettare, come efficenza a BGY gli autisti dei bus lasciano parecchio a desiderarre, sempre intente a fare messaggini e guardare le gambe delle donne...................!!!!!!!!
mi auguro che AirBaltic riesca a portare alla luce quello che si prefigura ancora una volta come una concorrenza sleale da parte di FR

Secondo me sono in gran parte riduzioni invernali, il traffico verso i paesi baltici in inverno si riduce drasticamente
