FlixBus Expands Routes from Bulgaria: New Connections to Thessaloniki, Athens, and More
FlixBus, the renowned European bus company, is set to launch new routes to and from Bulgaria in anticipation of the summer season
Bulgaria’s Minister of Tourism Nikolina Angelkova, on May 7 said that there is readiness to start the summer tourist season as early as 1st of July.
Until the 13th and after the 13th of June there are no cancelled charter flights, and from the 1st of June the beaches are ready. Three main measures are being prepared to support tourism.
First, from May 13, when the state of emergency is set to be lifted, the ban on the Minister for tourist trips will be lifted. According to the Minister, this will allow people to freely visit guest houses, as well as small hotels, of course, in compliance with health requirements, she explained.
In addition, steps are being prepared for the concessionaires of the beaches, and the concession fee will be forgiven up to 100%. In return, they have to provide beach accessories for free.
In case the discount from the concession fee is smaller, for example 20%, the prices of sunbeds and umbrellas on the beaches should be reduced as well.
In this regard, the Minister explained that a change is being prepared as to which part of the beaches should be a free zone and on which part the cafes should be located.
The Minister explained that at the moment it is not possible to check whether the guest houses and hotels comply with all the requirements, as they currently have no guests.
It is proposed to extend the period in which tourists who have prepaid their trips can receive their money for up to 12 months./bnt.bg
