Riga International Airport is the international airport of Riga, the capital of Latvia, and the largest airport in the Baltic states. The airport is located in the Mārupe municipality. Many airports use the letter ‘X’ to fill in when the desired letters are already taken. Riga International was built relatively recently in 1973, so its airport code comes from RIga plus that helpful ‘X’.
