Scandinavian Airlines plans to launch direct flights from Riga to Stockholm on March 29. Scandinavian Airlines will be performing up to 18 commercial flights a week on the route, including three daily flights on weekdays and up to two outbound flights a day at weekends. The launch of the Riga-Stockholm flights will mark Scandinavian Airlines' return to Latvia after a nearly seven-year interval.

The last Scandinavian Airlines flight took off from Riga in July 2008.
