Cheap flights from Stavanger to Riga

May is the lowest-priced month among those with dated fares, so start there if your dates are flexible. The other months with prices are October, November, December, January, February, March and June, which gives a long view across autumn, winter and early summer. Christmas and school holidays can tighten availability on European routes, so check those weeks carefully. Midweek departures often leave more connection options than weekends, and an overnight or very early start can be the price of a cheaper fare. If you can, compare a few adjacent dates rather than fixing one day.

With no nonstop flights, every option on this route connects, so the main difference is how long the change takes and what the fare includes. Norwegian, Norwegian International, Cityjet, Scandinavian Airlines, Nordic Regional Airlines, Wider, LOT Polish Airlines, Finnair, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines and German Airways all appear in the search results. Compare total journey time, baggage allowance, seat selection and whether meals or changes are included, because a cheaper base fare can grow once extras are added. If two itineraries look similar, the one with a single connection is usually easier.

Getting into town starts at Riga Airport, which sits outside the centre but is reached by bus, taxi and ride-hailing services. The transfer is usually straightforward, and the city centre is close enough that you are not committing to a long journey after a connecting flight. If you land late, public transport thins out, so decide in advance whether you will take a taxi or wait for the next bus. Riga is the capital of Latvia, so onward connections and city transport are well developed, but check which part of the city your hotel is in before you choose a stop.
