Feb 07, 2020 (newstodate): As of January 1, 2020, the Latvian carrier airBaltic's cockpit crews have got a new employer: Aviation Crew Resources.
The company based at Riga Airport was established in 2012 to provide customers with recruitment, crewing solutions of both flight and cabin crew, wet lease of aircraft, and airline start-up and operational consultations.
The contract between airBaltic and Aviation Crew Resources moves cockpit crews from the airline to ACR, and airBaltic has thus closed its own in-house department.
Latvian media quotes an airBaltic spokesperson saying that the decision is "a strategic decision that provides greater opportunities for business development by leasing aircraft to other airlines, including introducing payment tools and motivating pilots."
