Official statement “Fraport Twin Star Airport Management" AD for the development of Burgas Airport

“Fraport Twin Star Airport Management" AD continues to make every possible effort for the development of the traffic and infrastructure of Burgas Airport, fulfilling earnestly, timely, and entirely all its commitments and obligations to the state, in its role as a responsible concessionaire and good employer of all our employees - permanent and seasonal staff.  

The safety of the passengers, clients, and guests and the permanent increasing the passenger flow are the main priorities for us, as a company.  

In this regard, "Fraport Twin Star Airport Management" AD assures that any closure of Varna Airport and Burgas Airport is planned very carefully and will not be carried out in an active summer season! The avoidance of the impact on traffic is a top priority for the rehabilitation of the runway.

From the beginning of the concession, “Fraport Twin Star Airport Management” AD took the commitment to continuously maintain the runway of Burgas Airport. We would like to clarify that any periodical rehabilitation of the airport infrastructure is absolutely necessary for Burgas Airport to operate the airport in a safe and compliant way.  

The upcoming renovation of the Burgas Airport runway, possibly in 2025, is still in the early stages of planning, and not finally approved. It will be carried out in the least busy months of the year for the airport, so that it does not affect the summer season of 2025. At Varna Airport, a rehabilitation was successfully carried out 12 years ago and needed a 6-month closure of the operations.  

"Fraport Twin Star Airport Management" AD assures that Burgas Airport has the full technical capacity and personnel to serve and welcome any airline or aircraft wishing to fly to Burgas Airport, including Boeing aircrafts.

We want to emphasize that "Fraport Twin Star Airport Management" AD works continuously and proactively for the development of the summer and winter tourist seasons in Bulgaria and remains open for future cooperation in this direction with all stakeholders.

"Fraport Twin Star Airport Management" AD will announce to the media and the public all the details of the upcoming renovation of the runway at Burgas Airport in 2025, as soon as they are finally planned, as an active publicity policy has always been observed by the company.
