If you have booked transfers, they should be checking incoming flights and will undoubtedly be aware.
Not a pleasant start to your holiday but if you are prepared for the worst it just might help a little.

We were on the Dec 27 10pm flight which was cancelled due to fog and diverted to Bourgas!

This has happened to me before in Salzburg also with Ryanair. Incoming flight diverted, we had to sort ourselves out with new flights, were ever you could get with no help from Ryanair at all on that occasion. So credit where credit is due!
