How the Riga to Larnaca route actually runs
Pro Flight Search records official board updates for nonstop RIX to LCA flights through the day: schedules, estimates, gate pushes and actual departures. The verdict above comes from operated flights, so it reflects what this route does rather than what the timetable promises.

RIX to LCA questions
Is RIX–LCA running on time right now?
Smooth skies ahead. The arrival side at LCA is the weaker end, route health score 95/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.
How long is the flight from RIX to LCA?
Great-circle distance is 2,557 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 210–249 min gate-to-gate on this route.
How often does RIX–LCA fly?
AirBaltic runs the route with about 3 flights a week (sun, tue, thu). Since one carrier owns the route, a single disruption tends to ripple through the day.
What does the route health score measure?
A blend of departure-side delay at RIX and arrival-side delay at LCA, computed from rolling delay windows (refreshed every 40 minutes) with a daily-rollup fallback. Current MVFR, IFR, or LIFR endpoint weather caps the score when flight rules can limit throughput. Higher is healthier: 100 means operations are clean at both ends.
