Latvia’s airBaltic increases firm C Series order to 20 Bombardier CS300 aircraft

Latvian flag carrier Air Baltic has converted its remaining seven option aircraft to firm. This latest order brings airBaltic’s total firm order to 20 CS300 aircraft. This agreement follows the airline’s conversion of three option aircraft announced in February 2014. The original order for 10 firm CS300 aircraft with options for another 10 was announced on December 20th, 2012. The Riga-based airline will be the first customer to operate the CS300 aircraft when it takes delivery in the second half of 2016 – an excellent companion to its existing 12 Q400 aircraft.
