Does this mean that the easyjets and ryan airs of this world wont be flying to plovdiv in the near future, i have always hoped of being able to get a cheap flight to plovdiv up the mountain to pamps in 2.5 hours a long weekend sking and home again. Has my bubble been burst.

Plovdiv to Pamporovo was never more than 90 minutes Lloyd.

No Pete - be magnanimous and agree to a draw - the flights into Plovdiv could well be subject to a last-minute redirection at a later date Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

re: Snowy Norman - An Apology

Sofia is often fog bound, so flights have to be rerouted to Plovdiv.

The communists evidently built Sofia airport where it is so the mountains and fog would give protection from USA spies Exclamation Exclamation

Hi Pete

I know when the first page on thomson/crystal comes up with a list of hotels it just says sofia if you then click to book a hotel you get offered the choice of plovdiv or sofia. I booked for next year a few weeks ago and have had my confirmation through and it says plovdiv and if they change it later I will not be happy. Like people say it will affect numbers going to pamps as I know I personally prob couldn't face 4-5 hrs coach transfer from sofia as I only just make the plovdiv ...

Like people say it will affect numbers going to pamps as I know I personally prob couldn't face 4-5 hrs coach transfer from sofia as I only just make the plovdiv journey without getting ill. Would be a shame as I love it there even though we have had a couple of bad seasons. I was lucky and could ski every day when I went ....must have timed it just right lol Very Happy Very Happy
