Aer Lingus announces new route to Bulgaria

Aer Lingus today announced a new service from Dublin to Bourgas in Bulgaria. The new service marks the first Aer Lingus scheduled flight to Bulgaria and moreover, the only scheduled service from Ireland.

From mid-June the airline will operate two flights weekly. Bourgas Airport is in close proximity to major tourist resorts on the Bulgarian Black Sea coast. Bulgaria is an increasingly attractive destination with Irish tourist and property investors alike.

Speaking on the development, Enda Corneille, Corporate Affairs Director said, "We are delighted to be able to offer our customers another new popular holiday destination which compliments our existing extensive schedule. We believe the Bulgarian resort will prove particularly popular with families and holiday- makers alike."

In addition to great flight deals, aerlingus.com offers discounts on over 80,000 hotels worldwide with four- star Bulgarian hotels starting from €30 per room per night.
