If you look at their holiday brochure or look online it does say that there is a Prestwick flight. However, if you click on Prestwick as your departure airport it actually comes up as a Glasgow flight.

To reinforce what morh says, the Burgas Airport website certainly doesn't list Prestwick as a potential destination, whereas Glasgow [ Abbotsinch ] is shown, as are other UK regional airports.

Balkan Holidays 'Flight Information' page shows flights from Prestwick on Mondays, but test attempts to book various Monday dates between June 15th & August 3rd result in Glasgow or (in some cases) Edinburgh flights being offered instead.

Scottish flights seem to be a bit hit and miss this year. Thomas Cook and Thomson are still going from Glasgow, but starting later.

First Choice are advertising Glasgow -Bourgas, but when I tried to get details on their site, it came up as Edinburgh.

We really need a budget carrier out of Glasgow or Edinburgh to Bourgas to shake them up a bit.

Maybe if XL hadnt folded, their proposed Glasgow - Bourgas flights would have helped hold the prices down a bit.

Hi Joe, having been messed about so much in the past with flights from Prestwick-Varna(Manchester - Varna) , Glasgow - Varna (Glasgow - Bourgas) Glasgow - Varna (2days later) I'm reluctant to book Scottish flights to Bulgaria, ths why this year I have booked Newcastle - Varna fingers crossed :que

I always feel so disappointed at the lack of flights from Edinburgh/Glasgow going into Varna for the resort of Golden Sands.
I know many people that feel the same way too.

If there were Edinburgh flights to Varna I would most definately be on one of them as I love Golden Sands.
