LBSF is the ICAO code for Sofia Airport (IATA SOF), located in Sofia, 22, Bulgaria.
Sofia Airport (LBSF) is a large airport in Sofia, 22, Bulgaria. Pilots and dispatchers reference it by ICAO code LBSF or IATA code SOF. It sits in Europe.
Sofia Airport is a commercial-airline hub that also handles a steady stream of private and corporate traffic. Mixed commercial and private operations mean planners should expect slot coordination, handling agent involvement, and the usual international hub procedures.
Sofia Airport lies at 1,742 ft elevation.
Local operations run on Europe/Sofia. Because the field hosts scheduled airline operations, private operators should expect a defined slot environment, possible CDM coordination at peak banks, and limited ramp availability during major event weekends. Booking FBO ramp space in advance is normal practice.
SkyAccess currently tracks 21 departing and 22 arriving private-jet legs at LBSF across the next six months of operator inventory. 4 aircraft from 16 operators are based here or fly through regularly, so most empty-leg supply originates from a local fleet rather than out-of-town repositioning.
As one of the larger fields in Bulgaria, LBSF tends to be the natural choice for long-range international charters and crew-rest-required flights.
