Transportation with travel agencies
If you have bought a tour to Bulgaria with a travel agency (flight + accommodation + airport transfer), you will pick up your luggage and walk out of the transit zone.
On the right hand side you will find the stands of each travel agency where your delegates are waiting.
They will direct you to a bus that will take you directly to your hotel at no extra charge. The tourist bus stop is approximately 50 metres in front of the terminal.

You will find the car rental counters immediately after you exit the transit zone on the left.
it's actually from the Sunny Beach direction you can only get to the airport by bus 10. We're between Nessebar and Ravda and only bus 10 goes that way. We came here from Burgas on bus number 22 and it dropped us off a long way from here. Otherwise the bus system here is quite a mess, you have absolutely no idea when it's going to run. We need to go to the airport on Wednesday and we are just waiting at the bus stop.
Varna is a complete luxury in comparison, the app and the website show exactly where the bus is and when it will arrive at the stop, down to seconds.... On Wednesday it will be good meat again waiting in the sun :)
Yes, see above :) 22 goes backwards through Kableškovo, I almost got on it too :D
