JUL 26, 2004 (newstodate): Riga Airport is heading for a record year in air cargo.
In June, the airport generated a total of 616 tonnes of cargo, up 52 percent on last year.
For the first half year, volumes have soared by 96.5 percent over last year, reaching 5,870 tonnes of air cargo.
The growth trend this year gained momentum from March with 1,525 tonnes, and April, 1,864 tonnes.
The growth is seemingly spurred by the country's entry into the EU from May 1 this year.
