The new Sofia Airport winter flight schedule starts with the new year-round flights to Dublin and Budapest.

To the Irish capital city Ryanair will operate flights three times a week – on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. The passengers who arrived with the first flight from Dublin received scrolls with messages in Bulgarian and English.

As of 1 November airline Wizz Air will also operate flights twice a week to Hungarian capital city of Budapest. That destination is not a new one for Sofia Airport passengers. In June this year, after a three-year suspension, Bulgaria Air renewed its flights to the Hungarian capital city.
