ECOLOGY

Every human activity stems from the needs of society. It has its economical benefits but it also has an impact on the environment. In that respect no difference exists between civil aviation and any other human activity – it originated as a response to people’s need to travel faster and more comfortable, which respectively led to various changes in the environment.

Over the course of time it became obvious that the optimum balance needed to be found between the economical benefits of the fast-growing industry and the way it influenced the living conditions of people. That balance lies in the foundation of the strategy for sustainable development of aviation business.

“Sofia Airport” EAD strives to perform its obligations in such a way as to reduce the impact of aviation activities on the environment and the people working and living within Sofia Airport region.

We monitor, control and evaluate the different aspects of our activities and their impact on the environment. Thus we can find a way to diminish their impact on the living conditions in the vicinity of the airport.

All of the above gave start to “Sofia Airport” EAD’s long-term policy meeting the principles of sustainable development – adopting and applying world’s best practices in aviation business, striving to affirm our company as a good neighbour for the citizens living and working in the region.
