Bulgaria Air to launch winter Sofia-Lisbon service for first time

Bulgaria Air will operate direct scheduled flights between Sofia and Lisbon through the winter season for the first time, with the new timetable starting on 17 December 2026. The route will run twice weekly, on Mondays and Thursdays, using Airbus A220 aircraft, with one-way economy fares from EUR 169.

The fare includes 10 kg of hand baggage, a personal item, check-in and onboard catering. Lisbon-Sofia services were restored in 2024 and had previously operated only seasonally, so the move extends the connection beyond the warmer months and gives passengers a nonstop Bulgaria-Portugal option during winter. Tickets are already available through the airline’s sales channels.
