In the first month of Autumn Air Lituanica managed to successfully expand its flight geography: on the 15th of September the carrier introduced a second daily flight to Amsterdam whilst on the 20th and 21st of the same month it launched new routes to Prague and Munich, respectively.
'During the several months since establishing Air Lituanica we sold over 35 thousand of tickets to flights which have been already operated and the ones which are still scheduled,' says the CCO of Air Lituanica Simonas Bartkus. 'The occupancy of the routes which were introduced the earliest – i.e. from Vilnius to Brussels and Amsterdam – is more than 70%.'
S. Bartkus has noted that Air Lituanica is becoming more and more popular amongst travellers looking for convenient connecting flights: around 60% of passengers flying to Amsterdam choose this route due to easy connections via the capital of the Netherlands. In September the most popular destinations visited whilst travelling via the Amsterdam Schiphol Airport were Paris, Lion, Brussels, Madrid, Aberdeen, Marseille, Edinburgh and Detroit.
More than 50% of Air Lituanica clients are business travellers. In September 49% of them flew to Vilnius whilst 51% took off from the capital of Lithuania.
