Northern Bulgaria's regional gateway near the Yantra River.

Location
Gorna Oryahovitsa, Bulgaria
Gorna Oryahovitsa Airport is a regional airport located in northern Bulgaria, serving the city of Gorna Oryahovitsa and the broader Veliko Tarnovo region. It is one of Bulgaria's smaller commercial airports, historically used for both civil and military purposes. The airport sees limited scheduled commercial traffic and has at times operated charter and seasonal flights connecting the region to European destinations. Its proximity to the historic city of Veliko Tarnovo gives it potential as a tourism gateway, though passenger volumes remain modest compared to Sofia Airport. The facility has faced challenges in attracting consistent airline service, and its operations have fluctuated over the years. Despite this, it continues to serve as an important regional asset for central northern Bulgaria.

Gorna Oryahovitsa Airport
Encyclopaedia

Gorna Oryahovitsa Airport is an international airport near Veliko Tarnovo, Bulgaria. It is used predominantly for cargo, as the last regular passenger flights to Sofia were abolished in the end of the last decade. The airport is believed to have a very good prospective, because of its location in the centre of the country, the lack of big airports nearby, and the huge number of tourists in the area coming from abroad. Currently, it is the least developed of the five international airports in Bulgaria in terms of infrastructure and services.
