Some 327,100 passengers travelled via the airport, which also marks a ten per cent increase compared to July 2008, suggesting that the region's tourism industry is going strong, which is good news for anyone with Sofiya property.

The number of flights taking off from the airport also increased, with 4,353 flights being registered across the month, a five per cent increase compared to July 2009.

Bulgaria's popularity with holidaymakers was also highlighted by recent figures which show that the number of tourists visiting the Black Sea coast has increased by ten per cent compared with July and August 2009.

According to the Union of Owners of Nesebar, the region is attracting holidaymakers as it offers better value for money than countries such as Greece and Turkey, reports Novinite.
