airBaltic Has Extended Its Codeshare Partnership With British Airways

Latvia’s airBaltic has announced that it has extended its codeshare partnership with British Airways (BA), the UK’s flag carrier, effective September 19, 2024. Per the paperwork, the former will place code ‘BT’ on the Riga-London Heathrow-Riga flights, operated by BA, beginning October 1, 2024. On the other hand, the London-headquartered airline will continue injecting its code ‘BA’ on flights from Riga and Tallinn to London Gatwick, operated by the Latvian carrier.

The codeshare between the two airlines first went live ten years ago. As with the codeshare, passengers of both airlines will have more flexibility when travelling on services between Latvia, the United Kingdom, and beyond.

After a five-year gap, a much sought-after route for Air Serbia made a comeback today. Flight JU250 took off from the Serbian capital, Belgrade, and landed in France’s second-largest airport, Nice Côte d’Azur Airport. Serbia’s flag carrier will operate two weekly flights between Belgrade and Nice on Thursdays and Sundays. The flight time for each sector is approximately 2 hours. The announcement for the resumption of this route came in last month.

The Nice Airport serves more than 14 million passengers every year. Air Serbia’s connection to Belgrade will offer travellers additional flight options to several European destinations. Besides providing service to Nice, Air Serbia also offers flights to Paris and Lyon.
