Sofia Airport (SOF) is Bulgaria’s main international gateway and typically functions as a regional hub for full-service carriers and low-cost airlines alike, so you can expect a mix of national carrier, European network, and budget flights. It sits about 10–12 km east of the city centre; the metro links the airport to central Sofia in roughly 20–25 minutes with fares generally low-cost or integrated into public transport pricing, while taxis and ride-hailing can take 20–30 minutes depending on traffic and may charge moderate fixed or metered rates. Bus services and airport shuttles are also available for budget-conscious travellers. Pros: compact layout, frequent connections and efficient metro access; cons: peak-hour congestion, limited late-night public transport options on some days.

Bratislava’s Ivanka/M. R. Štefánik Airport (BTS) typically functions as a regional and budget-friendly gateway rather than a major international hub. It often serves low-cost carriers and several seasonal European routes, so fares can be comparatively lower than nearby Vienna but vary by season. The airport is about 9–10 km northeast of the city center; transfer options include city buses (roughly 20–30 minutes), taxis or ride-hailing (15–25 minutes), and occasional airport shuttles — expect fares generally in the low-euro range for public transport and moderate taxi costs. Pros: compact layout, short walking distances and fast check-in for many low-cost services. Cons: limited long-haul connections and fewer amenities than larger hubs, which can mean more transfers for intercontinental travel.
