Starting March 30, 2025, a new direct flight route will connect Sofia, Bulgaria, with Pisa, Italy, as announced by Sofia Airport. This service will be operated by Ryanair, Europe's largest low-cost carrier, with flights scheduled three times a week—on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays.

Ryanair, Europe's No.1 airline, today (6 Sep) named Italy as one of the top destinations enjoyed by its Bulgarian passengers this Summer.

According to Michael O’Leary, the CEO of Ryanair, two drinks at the airport before a flight are sufficient for passengers, and implementing limits on alcohol consumption at airports would help address the rise in disruptive incidents on flights.

Ryanair has announced that it will operate direct flights between the two cities, with the inaugural flight scheduled for November 2 this year. One-way tickets for the new service start at 35 euros.
