In the early hours of November 3, with а flight from Oslo, the latest addition to Bulgaria Air's fleet - the third Airbus A220-300 LZ-PAR - landed at Sofia Airport, Bulgaria Air said. The airline has been modernizing and upgrading its fleet in 2023, offering passengers a high level of in-flight comfort with the commercial operation of the new aircraft on its scheduled routes.

New airplanes are more environment friendly and fuel-efficient, using 25% less fuel. Airbus A220s have reduced emissions and half the noise footprint.

The larger A220-300 aircraft has 143 seats in total, 8 of them reserved for business class, and offers more row spacing. Passengers can travel comfortably in the new aircraft, which offers the widest seats in its class, larger windows, a bright and quiet passenger cabin, and an adaptive air conditioning system, Bulgaria Air said. USB ports for charging electronic devices are available at every seat.

With its LZ-PAR registration, the national carrier continues the tradition of naming aircraft after major European cities, in this case Paris. The previous two Airbus A220s, which arrived in June and August, were registered LZ-ROM (Rome) and LZ-LON (London).

Bulgaria Air's current autumn promotions to nine European destinations - Prague, Frankfurt, Berlin, Paris, Amsterdam, Rome, London, Brussels and Zurich - are valid until November 15, the airline said.
