When coming to Sofia, book flights to Sofia Airport itself rather than Plovdiv, Varna, or Burgas - unless you are planning a road trip as part of your visit!

Direct Scheduled Flights from the UK

The easiest option for people coming from London is to take direct flights with any of these airlines:

British Airways
Easyjet
Wizzair
Bulgaria Air

Bulgaria Air is often cheaper than British Airways, but is operated in a similar way to a budget airline - which is fine unless there is a delay!

Connecting Flights from the UK

Connecting flights with these airlines might be more useful for people coming from elsewhere in the UK:

British Airways
Lufthansa
Air France
Austrian Airlines
Alitalia
Malev Hungarian Airlines
Czech Airlines
LOT Polish Airlines
KLM Royal Dutch Airlines

British Airways flights will connect at London Heathrow, whereas Lufthansa will break the journey into even parts by connecting somewhere in Germany.

Direct Charter Flights from the UK

There are a limited number of direct charter flights from the UK during the summer period, which generally operate once a week:
