There are several convenient ways to get from Sofia Airport to the city center.
- Public transport (both bus from T1 and T2 and metro from T2). Tickets can be purchased in the public transport itself with a credit card - you need to approach your credit card to the validation machines which are close to the entrance gates inside the bus. For the metro you approach you card at the access gates at the Metro station. Concerning the buses to and from the airport - there are regular checks so it is highly advisable to validate your ticket (i.e. your credit card) once you are in bus/tram. The ticket fee for a single ride is 1.60 BGN (~0.80 EUR).
- Taxi (Yellow! have contract with both terminals of Sofia airport, https://sofia-airport.eu/en/access/transportation/#by-taxi ), go directly to the operator terminal at the airport. The cost of the trip from the airport to the city center is of the order of 10-15 euro.
Keep in mind that the buses and the metro to the airport don't operate between 00h and 05h AM and during this time taxi is the only option.
