(19/08/24)
 
airBaltic has appointed APG as
General Sales Agent (GSA) in Egypt.

As part of the agreement, APG will deliver
sales, marketing, reservation
and ticketing services to enhance airBaltic’s routes and market
presence in Egypt.

This winter season, airBaltic plans to introduce
scheduled flights from its home base in Riga (RIX), Latvia, to Hurghada
(HRG)
and Sharm El Sheikh (SSH), with up to two flights per week to both
destinations.

Previously, the two routes were operated as part of
a charter programme.

“We are thrilled to be appointed as airBaltic’s
GSA in Egypt,” said Omnia Kamal, Director of APG Egypt. “With our
vast experience and dedicated team, we are committed to
significantly improving airBaltic’s market reach and sales in
Egypt, providing customers with seamless access to the airline’s
exceptional services.”

Founded in
1995, airBaltic is the national airline of Latvia. Operating one of the youngest
fleets in Europe with 48 Airbus A220-300 aircraft, airBaltic
connects passengers to over 70 destinations across Europe, the
Middle East, North Africa, and the Caucasus.

“Over the
recent years, airBaltic’s network in Europe and beyond has
increased significantly, and our presence in these international
markets needs to be strengthened accordingly,” said Toms
Andersons, VP Sales at airBaltic. “We are glad to
extend our cooperation with APG also to boost our sales and brand
recognition in Egypt. We are looking forward to a successful,
long-term partnership.”
