Owners of tourist transport companies have protested in Sofia, Plovdiv, Varna, Burgas and Ruse. The reason for their dissatisfaction is that the sector, which has been affected by the pandemic cannot benefit from government financial assistance.

For carriers, the 60/40 measure is inapplicable because their companies have no revenue. The main demand of protesters is for a dialogue with the government in order to seek joint solutions to their problems.
