Riga International Airport (RIX) is Latvia’s main international gateway and typically functions as a regional hub for full-service and low-cost carriers alike, with airBaltic prominent alongside several budget operators. Located about 10 km (roughly 15–25 minutes) south of the city centre, transfers are straightforward: buses and shuttles can take around 25–35 minutes with modest fares, taxis usually reach the centre in 15–25 minutes for a higher but still reasonable fare, and private transfers are widely available. Prices for flights can be competitive, particularly on budget routes, while convenience is good thanks to compact terminals and regular services. Pros: close to downtown, efficient layout, frequent regional connections. Cons: can be busy during peak season and has fewer long-haul options than larger European hubs.

Fly direct from Riga to Krakow for the quickest, most convenient way to reach Poland’s historic heart — fewer transfers, less hassle, and more time to enjoy the city.

John Paul II Kraków–Balice (KRK) is the main international gateway for Kraków and southern Poland, serving a mix of full-service carriers and many low-cost airlines that can make fares competitive for European routes. The airport sits about 11 km west of the Old Town, with travel times typically around 20–30 minutes by taxi or 25–40 minutes by the dedicated train and bus links; taxis can be noticeably faster but cost more, while public buses and the SKA/rail service are usually the most economical. Facilities are compact and generally efficient, making transfers straightforward, though peak-season crowds and limited late-night services can reduce convenience for some itineraries.
