Air Baltic carries the Stanley Cup


Latvia’s national airline Air Baltic was given a unique opportunity to transport the Stanley Cup – the championship trophy awarded annually to the National Hockey League (NHL) playoff champion.

 

It was carried from the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto to Riga and afterwards to Tampere, as a part of the 2023 NHL Hockey Day in Finland. Air Baltic operated flights from Frankfurt to Riga and from Riga to Tallinn.

 

Pauls Cālītis, COO at Air Baltic: “Ice hockey is widely popular in Latvia, and the Latvian hockey fans are definitely world-famous. Therefore, we are especially honoured to be a significant part of this historic trip to the Baltic States, ensuring smooth and safe flight experience for the trophy and its keepers.” (cj)
