Sofia Airport (SOF) serves as Bulgaria’s main international gateway and typically functions as the country’s busiest hub, handling a mix of full-service and low-cost carriers such as Bulgaria Air, Wizz Air and Ryanair. Located about 10–12 km east of the city centre, it can be reached by metro in roughly 20–25 minutes (single fares around a few BGN), by taxi in 20–35 minutes depending on traffic (metered fares typically moderate), or by bus in 30–40 minutes for a lower-cost option. The airport usually offers a straightforward layout and modern facilities, making it convenient for transfers and international connections, while occasional peak-time queues and limited late-night services can be drawbacks for some travellers.

Fly direct from Sofia to Bologna for the quickest, most convenient way to reach Italy’s culinary and cultural heart — less hassle, no layovers, and more time to explore. While connecting flights can sometimes be cheaper, a non-stop trip saves valuable time and offers a more comfortable travel experience, making it ideal for short breaks or business visits.

Bologna Guglielmo Marconi (BLQ) is the city’s main international airport and often serves as a regional hub for full-service carriers and low-cost airlines alike, so you’ll typically find a mix of legacy European carriers and budget operators. Located about 6–8 km northwest of the historic centre, transfer options include the Aerobus shuttle (roughly 20–25 minutes, modest fare), regional trains to Centrale station (around 7–10 minutes plus a short transfer), and taxis or ride-hailing (15–25 minutes depending on traffic). Prices can be competitive compared with larger Italian hubs for short-haul flights. Pros: compact layout and frequent connections; cons: can be busy during peak tourist seasons and occasional queues at security or passport control.
