The Ministry of Transport and Communications sent letters to the mayors of Ruse and Burgas, asking them to take action to transfer ownership of Ruse Airport and Ravnets Airport to the structure of the Ministry.
This is part of a targeted policy to restore the operation of small regional airports.
Minister Sabev proposes that airports become state-owned within the meaning of Art. 43 b of the Civil Aviation Act. This will allow them to be managed by an airport operator with 100% State participation, and without the need for changes in the laws.
Thus, Ruse Airport will resume its activities as a civil airport as soon as possible, and Ravnets Airport will become a cargo terminal to serve logistics centers and freight transport in Burgas.
