Traffic from Germany is expected to increase significantly - by more than 70% compared to 2024. Growth is also expected in the number of tourists from Poland, Slovakia, Austria, Denmark and the Netherlands.


The first flight to a new destination will be to Krakow, Poland. Low-cost carriers are expanding their presence at Burgas Airport, carrying passengers to and from Warsaw, London, Vienna, Dublin, Budapest, Bratislava, Poznan, Katowice, Lublin, Gdansk and Kaunas.
