Bulgaria Shuts Plovdiv Airport as Volcanic Ash Moves South
Sofia News Agency, 19.04.2010
Bulgaria’s Plovdiv Airport was closed as of 11 pm Sunday because the Iceland volcanic ash cloud has moved slightly to the south, the Transport Ministry announced. Thus, the Sofia Airport of the capital remains the only major Bulgarian airport in operation. Earlier Sunday night, the Transport Ministry announced the cloud of volcanic ash, which has disrupted severely air traffic across Europe, was moving to the north of Bulgaria.
On Sunday, the Ministry closed Bulgaria’s air space but in the afternoon decided to reopen the airports in Sofia and Plovdiv as the cloud, which resulted from the eruption of a volcano in Iceland, reached only the northern parts of the country. Bulgaria’s air traffic service had announced that the country’s airspace north of the Belogradchik (in Northwest Bulgaria)- Svilengrad (in Southeast Bulgaria) line remains closed. However, the cloud has shifted slightly to the south affecting the air space of the city of Plovdiv.
