been working hard to improve both passenger and aircraft handling processes and infrastructure with the aim of minimizing the risks of disease transmission. Epidemiological safety measures are updated on a regular basis in accordance with the latest recommendations of health authorities and international aviation organizations. The effectiveness of these measures also depends on each of us - on how responsibly and carefully we comply with these requirements. That is why I call on everyone - let us travel ourselves, but we should not let the virus travel!”
The comprehensive epidemiological safety programme “Forbid the Virus from Travelling” was introduced at Riga Airport in May, providing a set of measures to protect employees of both the Airport and companies operating at the Airport and to ensure safe passenger servicing in order to minimize the risks of COVID-19 spread. Riga Airport has joined the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) COVID-19 Restriction Charter, confirming the company's readiness to work to the highest standards of aviation epidemiological safety and to cooperate at both the national and international level to reduce the risk of the spread of the disease.
