Riga International Airport (RIX) is Latvia’s main international gateway and typically serves a mix of full-service carriers, regional airlines, and budget operators, making it the primary option for most international and intra‑European trips. Located about 10 km southeast of the city center, transfers are usually quick: taxis and ride‑shares can take 15–25 minutes depending on traffic, while bus 22 or the airport shuttle to the central station typically takes around 20–30 minutes; fares are generally modest for public transport and higher for private transfer. The terminal is compact and relatively easy to navigate, which can be convenient for short layovers, though peak times may feel busy. Overall it balances good connectivity with straightforward facilities, while budget travelers often find affordable options through low‑cost carriers operating there.
