Burgas AirportBurgas International Airport, also known as Sarafovo Airport, is the airport of Burgas, Bulgaria. The IATA airport code of Burgas Airport is BOJ, its ICAO airport code is LBBG. The airport was used as a U.S. Army airbase during the Operation Enduring Freedom and although it is rumoured to become a permanent U.S. airbase but heavy passenger traffic of tourists going to the Black Sea resorts near Burgas is likely to prevent this. The airport is with a seasonal schedule and is not operating during the winter time when most of the resorts in the area are closed. Technical data Distance from the city centre NA Altitude 37 m.
