Riga Airport (RIX) is Latvia’s main international gateway and typically serves as the country’s primary hub for full-service carriers and many low-cost airlines, so you’ll find a mix of premium and budget options. It’s located about 10 km (roughly 15–25 minutes by car depending on traffic) southeast of the city center; taxis and ride-hailing are common and can be moderate in price, while the airport bus (routes 22 and 222) links to central stops in around 25–40 minutes for a low fare. Car rental and private transfers are widely available, and cycling can be an option in summer. Pros: compact terminal with straightforward connections and reasonable transit times to downtown; cons: fewer long-haul nonstop choices than larger European hubs and peak-season queues can form at security or check-in.
