Improvement in Riga Airport’s financials but uncertainty about Ryanair’s presence

Latvia’s Riga International Airport (RIX) reported a profit of EUR705,000 in 1Q2011, compared with a loss of EUR21,150 in the previous corresponding period, in a report submitted to the governing body of the Ministry of Transport. The airport, a home to aggressive airBaltic, handled 939,630 passengers and 15,373 flight movements. But Ryanair, which has a significant presence could still move away.
