The low-cost airline Wizz Air is expanding its route network from Stuttgart. From December 16, 2024, the airline will offer direct flights to the Bulgarian capital Sofia three times a week.
With this new connection, Wizz Air is increasing the number of routes served from Stuttgart to five, which already include destinations such as Tirana, Budapest, Bucharest and Cluj-Napoca. The new flights to Sofia will be offered on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays and are intended to offer holidaymakers, business travellers and commuters from southern Germany a fast connection to Bulgaria.
Wizz Air currently also offers connections to Sofia from other German airports such as Dortmund, Frankfurt Hahn, Hamburg and Memmingen. The capital of Bulgaria, with its approximately 1,1 million inhabitants, is increasingly being seen as an insider tip for tourists. The new route is part of Wizz Air's ongoing expansion in Germany, where the airline operates from a total of twelve airports.
