airBaltic announces flights to Batumi


Latvian airline airBaltic announces that starting on May 2, 2022, it plans to launch new scheduled flights between Riga and Batumi, Georgia. airBaltic has scheduled to connect both cities with two weekly flights.

Situated in Georgia and bordered by the Black Sea, Batumi is a port city that is slowly becoming as one of the most popular tourist leisure destinations. It’s famous for its sunny beaches, impressive architecture and botanical gardens.

Not many destinations have the skyscrapers, the beach, and the mountains all in one shot outside the plane’s window but this jewel of the Black Sea is one of them. Discover Batumi – Georgia’s most charming seaside town where the beaches are welcoming, the food and wine mouth-watering, and the culture ancient and vibrant.

Astonishing contrasts of architecture will not leave you unimpressed – take a ride with the cable car for spectacular city views over futuristic skyscrapers and charming old town with the Black Sea in the background. For a real authentic experience, venture to the local market Batumis Bazari for the bustling atmosphere, freshest flavours of street food and locally made chacha – the market is the best place where to witness Georgian hospitable spirit.

High above the Black Sea set in the hills lie Batumi's Botanical Gardens – an Eden of sorts where to seek tranquillity whilst gazing across the bright blue waters and city skyline far below. Then take a stroll along the world’s longest boulevard stretching south towards the Turkish border and watch the sun going down in the sea painting the sky in strikingly beautiful colours.

Just after dusk when the city turns into a sea of lights and streets are filled with music, visit the Alphabetic tower – a 130m high structure that has become a major tourist attraction symbolising the uniqueness of the Georgian alphabet and giving the city an edgy feel.

For a complete Georgian experience, take a train ride from Batumi through the gorgeous countryside ending at metropolitan Tbilisi – another airBaltic destination in Georgia. Fly to Batumi, explore the inland of Georgia, and fly back from Tbilisi!
