FLIGHTS
Bulgaria is just 3 hours flying time from London and is serviced by most major European airlines which offer Scheduled flights to Sofia. In winter there are also numerous Tour Operators that also offer seat only on their Charter flights. If you cannot find a direct flight please do not be put off by indirect ones, the Sofia route is usually quite well linked.
If you are thinking of bringing your own bike then this really isnt a problem. They can simply be check in pre-booked at time of booking flight) as sports equipment. Wizz Air are excellent with their allownaces (32kgs).
As a small independent company we are at present unable to offer flights as part of our package, but flights can be booked via the internet or through any High Street Travel Agency. We can suggest for you a few internet sites which we have personally used in the past with no problems.
Via the internet the search should be conducted to SOFIA (or for Ryanair Plovdiv). Transfers to and from Plovdiv will carry a small surcharge.
