    Armavia to start flying from Yerevan to Riga

    Armenian airline Armavia will start operating flights between Riga and
    Armenia's capital city Yerevan.



    Representatives from Armavia and the Riga International Airport will
    give a press conference on June 2 to inform about the launch of the
    flights between Riga and Yerevan, as the airport's press secretary
    Martins Langrats informed LETA. Riga Airport board chairman Krisjanis
    Peters, board member and vice president Janis Balkens, Armavia
    director general Norair Belluyan and other executives from the airline
    will take part in the press conference, informs LETA.



    Armavia is Armenia's national airline and the leader on the Armenian
    aviation market, it was founded in 1996 by Aviafin and Mika Armenia
    Trading.



    The airline employs more than 550 people overall, it offers flights
    from Armenia to Russia and C.I.S. countries as well as to Europe and
    Middle East.



    Armavia performs more than 70 regular flights to thirteen countries
    each week. Armavia is a second foreign airline to start flying to Riga
    this year. At the beginning of May, Germany's low-cost airline
    "Germanwings" launched flights between Riga and Cologne.



    Peters said earlier that one more foreign airline would start
    operating flights to Riga this year. Latvian national airline
    airBaltic has been offering flights from Riga to Yerevan since April
    this year.
