I have used the bus service twice and its effortless cheap and efficient. Takes about 4 hours as it stops for half an hour on the way but other than that its fine. From memory it cost 18lev 1 way.

Sofia central bus statoion is more as an half hour, without stop and go, away from Airport. The price will be around 10 lev thats true. it seems to be 15 km drive from the airport to the CBS, you can even catch the bus from airport to the CBS.

Did the bus trip just before Christmas - the price is 20lv. I have done it several times and the coaches have always been on time, and comfy

The price for a taxi to the bus station does vary - depending on the traffic etc, but the most expensive I have paid is 12lv.

hope this helps
