When to fly
November is the cheapest month among the dates shown for this route. Fares are also listed from December through April, so prices can move as winter travel and holiday periods approach. If your dates are flexible, compare several weeks rather than one fixed day, and check midweek departures against weekend ones. Around Christmas and New Year, and during school holidays, availability can tighten; Riga's summer is another period to check if you want longer daylight. Book far enough ahead to keep your preferred connection, especially on itineraries with one ticket.
Airlines and what to expect
Because there are no nonstop flights, every option connects through at least one hub, adding a second boarding and a transfer wait. The carriers listed are GOL Linhas Aereas S.A., TAP Portugal, LATAM Airlines, Iberia and Azul; some offers are more basic than others, so compare baggage, seat choice and change rules before you pay. A single ticket usually protects the connection if a flight is delayed, while separate tickets can leave you to solve a missed connection yourself. Check which airport your connection uses and how much time it allows.
Arriving — Riga
Arriving late in the day can change your onward options, because transport into Riga may be less frequent after the last arrivals. Riga airport is the arrival point for this route; plan how you will reach the centre before you land, rather than deciding at the airport. A late arrival can also mean fewer shops, cafes and transfer desks open, so keep documents and onward details handy. If you connect on the same day, allow time for border and baggage formalities before leaving the terminal.
