flight into sofia

Bad new's if you are going into Sofia today.
Easy jet (06.30) gatwick to sofia has now landed but not in Bulgaria. the same old story, no I.L.S. for the aircraft so a lot of flights are diverted or cancled. now its a 9hr transfer to Sofia and then 4hr to pamporovo.
This is due to fog around the airport at Sofia.
Most of the flights this morning have been cancled
Sorry for the bad new's

Thessaloniki is almost as close to pamps as sofia!

re: flight into sofia

There are 2 airports in Sofia, one being new.
Don't know (not being a plane buff), but maybe the new one may have the I.L.S.! gear!

re: flight into sofia

Where's the second airport Pete?

re: flight into sofia

I met Amanda from the Orphanage on my way home.
She asked me which airport I was flying from as they where different ends of Sofia.
The rep told me the new one was Terminal 2!
Maybe bump into u with my Tribe next year if I bring some Marmite!

re: flight into sofia

The airports are one and the same! New terminal only. There is an airstrip west of Sofia do you mean that
