Dortmund Airport (DTM) serves primarily as a regional and low-cost gateway to the Ruhr area rather than a major international hub. It typically hosts budget carriers and some leisure routes alongside a handful of scheduled European connections, so fares can often be competitive for short-haul travel. The airport lies about 12–15 km northeast of Dortmund city centre; by regional express or S-Bahn it’s usually a 20–30 minute trip, while buses and taxis can take 25–35 minutes depending on traffic — expect public transport fares to be modest, with taxi rides costing more. Pros: compact terminal, straightforward transfers and short walking distances. Cons: limited long-haul options and fewer full-service carrier amenities compared with larger German hubs.
Sofia Airport (SOF) is Bulgaria’s main international gateway and typically handles a mix of full-service carriers, low-cost airlines and regional operators, making it the country’s primary hub for both business and leisure travelers. The airport sits about 10–12 km east of Sofia’s center; tram, bus and metro connections usually take roughly 20–40 minutes depending on traffic and cost around a few lev (local fares) to modest taxi rides which can be 10–20 minutes at higher local rates. Facilities are generally modern after recent upgrades, with a reasonable range of shops and lounges, while budget-conscious flyers may find competitive fares on low-cost carriers; occasional congestion at peak times and limited late-night services can be potential drawbacks.
