Riga International Airport (RIX) is Latvia’s main international gateway and usually serves as the region’s primary hub for full-service and low-cost carriers alike, including Air Baltic and several European budget airlines. Located about 10 km (roughly 15–25 minutes) southeast of the city centre, it’s typically convenient for most travellers; taxis and ride-hailing can take around 15–20 minutes with fares commonly in the mid-range for European capitals, while public buses and shuttles connect to the central station in roughly 25–40 minutes for modest ticket prices. The airport is generally compact and easy to navigate, offering straightforward connections and a reasonable range of shops and lounges, though it can be busier during peak seasons and has fewer long-haul amenities than larger international hubs.
Bratislava Airport (BTS) is Slovakia’s main international gateway but operates on a modest scale, serving a mix of legacy and low-cost carriers for regional and some seasonal routes. It’s located about 9 km northeast of the city center, with transfer options including frequent buses and shuttles (roughly 20–30 minutes) and taxis or rideshares that typically take 15–25 minutes depending on traffic; fares can be inexpensive for buses and moderate for private cars. The airport is often perceived as more budget-friendly than larger nearby hubs, making it convenient for short trips and quick connections. On the plus side, it’s easy to navigate and quicker to clear than big airports; on the downside, route choice and on-site amenities can be limited compared with major international hubs.
