AirBaltic has reported what it calls significant growth in its ACMI (Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance, and Insurance) and charter operations during 2025, operating 30,000 ACMI flights. This represented a 14.5pc increase compared to the previous year. The average ACMI fleet expanded to 14 aircraft, up 19pc from 2024, with a seasonal peak of 20 aircraft in summer.
These activities contributed 20pc to the airline’s total revenue, while scheduled services from the Baltic region remained the primary focus. The growth demonstrates airBaltic’s capability in providing wet-lease solutions to partners worldwide. It supports fleet utilisation and additional income streams beyond core passenger operations.
The results highlight operational flexibility and market demand for ACMI services in a competitive aviation landscape. airBaltic continues to balance charter work with its hub-and-spoke model in Riga and other bases.
