Irish Low-Cost Carrier Ryanair have announced plans to expand their winter schedule for this year with a brand new route from Liverpool to Sofia, Bulgaria. The service will run 2x per week using their Boeing B737-800 aircraft. The service is due to start on 31st October 2016 when the winter schedule starts and will operate on Monday’s and Friday’s. The Bulgarian Capital has become the 4th newest destination out of Liverpool’s portfolio this year, with Vueling launching their Barcelona services earlier this week.
Robin Tudor, Head of PR for Liverpool John Lennon Airport commented, “We are delighted to see Ryanair add to its list of destinations served from Liverpool and particularly as Sofia is a City not currently served from here. This will further improve connectivity for the City Region, enhancing our links to the Capitals of Europe.”

Ryanair have also stated in the press statement made by Liverpool Airport that their operations plan for the winter schedule of 2016 at Liverpool Airport will be released “shortly”.
