Now anyone can enjoy inspiring and exciting travel articles on airBaltic destinations, celebrity interviews, reviews of the latest books, movies and CD, airBaltic news and many other features.

Tero Taskila, Chief Commercial Officer of airBaltic: "Baltic Outlook has been available to up to 300000 people every month travelling via North Hub Riga to destinations in Europe, Middle East and Russia/CIS. Currently Baltic Outlook is published monthly for airBaltic passengers. Of course many people do not travel regularly, but have expressed strong interest in receiving regular copies of our high quality publication. This is our way to make each issue of Baltic Outlook available to our loyal readers. Baltic Outlook is the only pan-Baltic magazine available on Apple iPads."

The new Baltic Outlook app will enable iPad and iPhone users to read exciting travel stories, learn about new airBaltic destinations, find restaurant and event reviews, and tips for travellers.
