Air India and airBaltic have announced a new, unilateral codeshare partnership, in an extension to an interline agreement signed by the two airlines in June 2025.
Under the new codeshare partnership, announced on December 30, 2025, Air India customers will gain more convenient access to the Baltic region.
Air India passengers will be able to access airBaltic-operated flights between the Latvian capital city of Riga and Air India’s European gateways with a single ticket.
The European Air India gateways include Amsterdam, Paris, Frankfurt, Copenhagen, Milan Malpensa, Vienna, Zurich, and London-Gatwick.
Air India’s interline partnership with airBaltic also enables travelers to fly to Tallinn in Estonia and Vilnius in Lithuania via select Air India gateways in Europe, thus covering the Baltic region.
Air India has begun adding its ‘AI’ designator code to airBaltic-operated flights to Riga.
Nipun Aggarwal, Chief Commercial Officer, Air India, said: “This expanded partnership with airBaltic reflects Air India’s commitment to providing seamless global connectivity to our customers across the world. Latvia and the wider Baltic region are growing travel markets, but getting there for our customers was previously not as convenient as it now becomes with airBaltic on board with us.”
Since its privatization in 2022, Air India has established 24 codeshare partnerships and nearly 100 interline agreements with leading carriers worldwide.
