Globe Air Cargo to sell airBaltic space in UK

[ April 21, 2026   //   Chris Lewis ]

ECS Group’s Globe Air Cargo UK subsidiary has signed a deal to represent airBaltic in the country. The GSSA will flights from London Gatwick, Manchester and Aberdeen to Riga and Tallinn including two weekly Aberdeen-Riga due to start on 2 June and Manchester services that will resume on 13 December.

It says the carrier’s A220-330 aircraft are ideal for mail and e-commerce business, alongside general cargo and pets.

Vice President cargo at airBaltic, Ilja Seliverstovs, said that the carrier planned to position Latvia as a logistics gateway to Northern Europe with its new cargo handling facility in Riga. Opened last year, the Baltic Cargo Center can handle up to 45,000 tonnes of cargo per year, including specialised facilities for temperature-sensitive, high-value goods, and live animals.
