Where these numbers come from
Observed service A carrier record shows this named operator serving this named pair, and we carry that through unchanged.
Schedules, seat counts and fares are generated by our own model until the supplier contracts are signed. Places, coordinates, operators, which operator serves which pair, and every distance are real. We would rather say that on every page than let a modeled number pass for a filed one.
Every figure above was computed for Aberdeen to Riga on September 9, 2026: 1623 km of route against 1575 km in a straight line, 5 services a day, 1 operators, a cheapest fare of €147.05, and 5h 37m door to door on the fastest mode. The return direction is computed separately and its numbers are not these numbers.
Being on the water gives Riga a set of days out that do not start at a station. We do not sell those either.
