Sofia International Airport
This is the main gateway to Bulgaria and handles more than half of the international air traffic to Bulgaria.
The flight from the UK takes 2.5 hours.
British Airways and Bulgaria Air provide daily flights to and from London.
While low cost airlines such as Flybe operate flights to and from Exeter to
Sofia and vice versa these low cost alternative Airports are coming on stream
all the time so you should check your local airport prior to each flight.
Other airlines such Hungarian, Czech and Austrian may be a good alternative if
you do not mind a short stopover in the respective capital.
Once in Sofia, we can pick you up or various other means of transportation
are available.
You can rent a car from the airport should you need flexible transportation
arrangements.
Regular bus services can take you anywhere in the country in comfort. The
longest one way trip possible (Sofia to Varna) is about 5.5 hours and costs
about £10. The winter resorts – Borovets, Bansko and Pamporovo are 1, 2, and 3
hours drive from Sofia, respectively. In general, transportation services are of
good quality and reliable. Click her to see a map of Bulgaria
Varna and Burgas Airports
The importance of these seaside airports sharply increases during the summer months. They handle significant traffic of incoming tourists from Western Europe and Russia going for their summer vacation. Numerous charter flights operate to and from the airports and can go as low as £80 approx one way. They cover the main markets of the UK, Germany, Scandinavia and Russia. Out of season demand sharply drops and arranging a direct flight to the seaside becomes more difficult, but still possible, especially to Varna.
Shuttles and regular bus services are readily available between Burgas and
Varna (2 hours) and the resorts in between. Such services are also at your
disposal should you want to visit the resorts south of Burgas or north of Varna.
Again, transportation is reliable.
