Therefore, by the end of August, we would like to invite passengers from Lithuania to the most conveniently located airport in the UK – to London-City. The re-launched flights are expected to attract a lot of interest and contribute to a strengthening of relations between Lithuania and Great Britain – said Krzysztof Moczulski, LOT’s spokesperson.
