Latvia Riga Airport Tender

The modernization of the boarding pass control equipment - e-gate - will start at the departure terminal of Riga Airport which will continue until the end of October.Four of the six e-gates currently installed at the airport departure terminal will be replaced with new equipment technically improving and speeding up passenger service and reducing the need for manual document checks.Investments in the modernization of the airports technological equipment are at the same time an investment in the provision of a modern passenger-friendly service as well as will improve the working environment for our employees. We are purposefully using the time when the number of passengers has not returned to the pre-crisis level to improve the work processes of the airport explains Laila Odia the Chairman of the Airport Board.During the reconstruction of the e-gate from October 8 to the end of October one electronic document check-in gate and two manual checkpoints will be in operation so departing passengers must take into account the possible queues at boarding pass control especially in the morning and evening hours. We apologize to passengers for the inconvenience and urge you to plan your arrival in time - not less than two hours before the scheduled departure.Equipment modernization - purchase installation and warranty service costs are 83 thousand euros which the airport covers from its own funds. The equipment is supplied by the French manufacturer Impression Enregistre Resultat SAS. The current boarding pass control e-gateway has been in use for almost 10 years.
