The naming contest, held last year to commemorate the 35th anniversary of the Baltic Way, invited the public to vote for their most beloved cities across Latvia, Estonia, and Lithuania. A total of over one million votes were cast during the voting period from August 5 to August 22, resulting in a shortlist of 48 cities – 16 from each Baltic country – reflecting the airline’s fleet size at the time of the contest.
The airline plans to gradually name the remaining 45 of its 48 Airbus A220-300 aircraft after the most beloved Baltic cities, as determined by a public vote, with the names announced in random order.
