Sofia - Post Report Question and Answers

What is your home city/country? How long is the trip to post from there, with what connections? How easy/difficult is it to travel to this city/country?

Philadelphia, PA. I leave out of Newark because it's easier but about 13 hours with a connection in Frankfurt. It's not too bad. - Jun 2023


My home country is the United States of America and my home town was about a 45 minute drive from Washington DC. To travel between Bulgaria and D.C. usually took about 13 hours, plus any additional layover time. It was pretty easy to get to and not too expensive. - Mar 2019


From Washington DC, there are flights to major European cities (Pairs, Munich, Frankfurt, London) and then flights to Sofia from there. The trip is somewhere around 7 hours for the longer flight and 2-3 for the Euro leg, plus all the layover time. - May 2016


D.C. Sofia is a small airport so you will need to connect to a major HUB in Europe or Istanbul. - Dec 2014


Washington DC. - Nov 2014


Seattle, WA. Takes about 2.5 hours from Sofia to Munich and 9 hours to Washington from Munich. - Aug 2014


East coast US. Travel time is about 15 hours, including layovers. You can connect via London, Paris, Madrid, Rome, and Frankfurt. Lufthansa via Frankfurt is the best connection in my opinion. - Jun 2011
