The cancellations are a result of unexpected delays and prolonged engine maintenance by Pratt &amp; Whitney.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The engine manufacturer\u2019s inability to meet its timely maintenance obligations has impacted the operational capabilities of airBaltic\u2019s Airbus A220-300 fleet, forcing the airline to adjust its summer schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>airBaltic has been informed by Pratt &amp; Whitney that several of its A220-300 aircraft will remain grounded into 2025 due to an engine shortage. As a result, the airline will cancel 19 routes and reduce frequencies on 21 others across its bases, affecting some 67,160 passengers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/en\/2024\/12\/air-canada-places-new-order-for-five-airbus-a220-aircraft.html\">Air Canada places new order for five Airbus A220 aircraft<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite these challenges, airBaltic will continue operating most of its flights \u2013 over 70 destinations across Europe and beyond \u2013 ensuring the Baltic States remain connected to the rest of the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Like many other airlines worldwide, airBaltic has been facing external factors beyond its control, including global supply chain issues and maintenance constraints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The airline deeply regretted the disruption caused by these forced cancellations and remains fully committed to supporting affected customers through rebooking options or full refunds as needed. Minimizing disruption and maintaining reliable service remain top priorities for the airline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>airBaltic advised customers whose flights have been affected to check their reservations
