NEWS FLASH


Bulgaria Air’s CEO, Hristo Todorov, has held talks with his counterpart at Air Serbia Jiri Marek. According to Mr Todorov, the two discussed the expansion of the existing ACMI arrangement between the two airlines. Under the deal, Bulgaria Air wet-leases two of its 108-seat Embraer E190 aircraft to the Serbian flag carrier. A wet-lease involves providing the aircraft, entire crew, maintenance and insurance on the aircraft. “We are expanding our ACMI cooperation with Air Serbia for the E190 fleet”, Mr Todorov said without going into further detail. Apart from the two E190s operating for Air Serbia, the Bulgarian carrier has a further two E190s. The existing wet-lease arrangement came into effect this April.

      ^ They have no dry leased E195s from Bulgaria Air. They have 2 wet leased E190s. Bulgaria Air has another 2 E190s in its fleet which will probably be wet leased to Air Serbia next year. So total of 4 Bulgaria Air wet leased E190s.

      Bulgaria Air is most likely going to wet-lease its whole E190 fleet (4 aicraft) to JU, so two more comparing to this NS24.

      Additionally, JU is going to have its own dry-leased E195s (2 aircraft).

      Totally - 6 Embraer aircraft in JU in NS25.

      Bulgaria Air is thousands miles away from Marathon. Bulgaria Air is national carrier of an EU country and has very well-trained pilots in the company for years.

      Yes - 2x E195 and 4x E190.

      Yes, Marathon is a EU carrier also, but small carrier which had to expand quickly because of JU and to find many pilots which is not easy. It is questionable where did they find pilots and how trained they were.

      Bulgaria Air has very well trained pilots in company for years.

      It is not. They have clarified that E190s will go to ACMI upon receiving A220s. According to some media they will retire E190 fleet by the end of 2025, but we will see about that.

      11:37 It is enigma not only to you! As a Bulgarian, I would say that in Bulgaria, Bg air is known to be more of a money laundering company of some people from Varna. Bg air has barely any flights from Sofia during winter, even their very important pratner-AF/KLM cancelled their codeshare agreement. They don’t have any ambition to grow like air serbia. At SOF, Wizz and FR, even LH beats them. Bulgarians fly mostly wizz and fr(unfortunately less wizz even, fr beats wizz at sof) and for business/continental flights mainly LH. Where is Bg air left? However, when it comes to pilot training, pilots are exceptional. SOF flight training is a great school, and currently, A220 type rating is done at LH. So even though the airline sucks like management, when it comes to training, all of FB pilots are very good.

      I can’t tell you, as far as I know, it has something to do with the mafia in bulgaria which was formed after the fall of the communism. TIM is the group, they have hotels on the Black sea coast above Varna. They also own Bg air, 40% of the concessions at Varna&Burgas airports, some stake at Lufthansa Technik in Sofia. Unlike other mafias in Bg, you would barely hear about them. Honestly, I haven’t read about them a lot, its just what I’ve heard in the aviation community in Bg.

      Please do not bother yourself trying to find out what exactly the business model of Bulgaria Air is. Thanks to the shareholders and the God as well, the airline exists and with A220 maybe will be more attractive. So many other around disappeared...

      They will add more dry leased planes but it will be a gradual introduction. Lack of pilots on this type in Serbia is an issue.

      If Air Serbia can't train enough pilots to introduce more than two Embraers per year, it will take them seven more years to reach that goal.
