Cheap flights from Riga
Cheap flights from Riga all leave from the same airport, so every trip starts at Riga Airport. The route map leans toward other European capitals and warm-weather coasts: Chisinau, Warsaw, Krakow, Prague, Budapest, Vienna, Barcelona, Valencia and Alicante all appear, with Antalya joining in for the beach season. Air Baltic carries a large share of the schedule, and Ryanair, Finnair, LOT Polish Airlines, Norwegian International and Nordic Regional Airlines fill in the rest.
Destinations from Riga
Airports — Riga
Riga Airport is the city's only departure point, so there is no choosing between airports across town — you check in, clear security and board in the same place whichever airline you booked. Air Baltic, Ryanair, Finnair, LOT Polish Airlines, Norwegian International, Nordic Regional Airlines and Cityjet all fly from here, which splits the departures neatly between low-cost and full-service carriers. In summer, when several flights leave inside a short window, give yourself extra time at security.
When to go
Riga flies all year, but the shape of the year matters. Summer is the busy stretch: school holidays in Latvia push families toward the Mediterranean and the Turkish coast, and seats to Antalya, Alicante and Barcelona tighten first. Fares calm down in late autumn and again in the weeks after the winter holidays, when city-break routes to Prague, Vienna, Warsaw and Budapest are quieter. Spring and early autumn often give you the easiest mix of mild weather and calmer fares.
