AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Latvia-Ukraine Security & Tourism: Latvia and Ukraine plan a joint drone manufacturing facility in Latgale, with counter-drone systems set to expand along the eastern border in July–August—aiming to boost jobs and investment while keeping travel and business safer. airBaltic Pay Watch: airBaltic’s new CEO Erno Hilden earned €57,211 in December 2025, about 18% less than former CEO Martin Gauss’s average monthly pay, as Latvia’s airline leadership costs stay in the spotlight. EU Travel Rules: The EU air passenger rights reform (EU261) was backed by most countries, but Spain and Latvia voted against; changes are expected by end-2027 and could reshape baggage and compensation for flyers. Heat & Holiday Planning: A record heatwave is scorching Europe, with landmark closures and reduced opening hours—another reminder to plan city breaks around extreme weather. Coastal Life in Latvia: Liepāja’s seagulls are getting bolder, stealing food and causing damage, pushing the focus toward prevention rather than “fighting” the birds. Family Travel Perks: More airlines now let families pool miles, making it easier to book reward flights together. Latvia in Sports Tourism: A young British ice hockey player recently traveled to Riga for a major junior tournament, highlighting Latvia’s growing role in youth sports trips.
