Varna Airport to close for months

Varna airport will not send and receive flights after the summer season due to the initiation of a major infrastructure project - rehabilitation of the runway. The plans provide that it be done in the period from mid October to early next year, announced Wednesday by the press office of the Varna airport.

The exact period during which to carry out the works, will be announced immediately after completion of the procedures required for a project of this scale, including bidding procedures, approvals and permissions from relevant authorities.

During the closure of the airport, traffic will be serviced from the Burgas Airport and the company will provide free bus transportation between the two airports from the airport explained.
Work on the project and the time for its implementation are discussed, both with line ministries and agencies and with representatives of airlines that operate at Varna airport and tourist organizations, complemented by the airport.

Uncles Comment: It's crazy in my view to completely close an airport, but they only have one runway so inevitable.Burgas airport is over two hours away so major disruption.
