Bulgarian sea resort operator Albena to open Lesnovo airport in late August

Dnevnik Daily, 2006-05-25

     Albena, the Bulgarian travel company that operates the eponymous sea resort, said it will complete by late August the construction of administrative and passenger terminal buildings on the site of the Lesnovo airport near Sofia.
     Albena has already extended the runway and built a refuelling dock and a 2,000 sq m hangar.
     The 800 sq m airport building will include arrival/departure lounges, offices and a restaurant.
     The Lesnovo airport, which will service only aircraft of up to 5.7 tons and will offer air pilot training, already has a fleet of 15 two- and four-seaters and is expected to add another 10 over the next 2-3 years, said Albena executive director Krasimir Stanev.
     Albena already operates a small airport near Primorsko, on the Black Sea. That facility is planned to host a meeting of members of the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association, an event that should boost Bulgaria's profile as a flight destination among the owners of small jets.
     Earlier this month, Albena said it was negotiating with the defence ministry for joint access to a disused military air base in Balchik, on the Black Sea.
     Stanev said the combined investment tally for the 3 airports is around 8 mln levs.
