The Estonian Foreign Ministry has announced that it has opened bookings for a special AirBaltic flight to Tallinn, scheduled for citizens stranded abroad. Additionally, it has started bookings for a FlyDubai special flight returning to Riga from Dubai. The initiative aims to facilitate the return of Estonian citizens who may be unable to return home using regular commercial flights due to current global travel restrictions or other complications.

These special flights are part of a broader government effort to ensure the safe return of its citizens during times of crisis. The Foreign Ministry has been actively working to coordinate these efforts and maintain communication with its citizens in order to provide assistance and support. The option for citizens to book these flights represents a significant step in addressing the difficulties faced by those currently abroad in finding a way back to their homeland.

By leveraging partnerships with airlines like AirBaltic and FlyDubai, the Estonian government is demonstrating its commitment to assist its citizens in their time of need. This initiative not only benefits those who have been affected by travel bans but also reinforces the government's role in providing consular support and ensuring the safety of its citizens, especially during unprecedented circumstances.
