Route on the map
When to fly
June is the cheapest month in the fare calendar, and it lands just before the height of the Black Sea season, when Varna and its beaches fill up. July is priced too, at the top of the season. Outside summer, the calendar runs from September through December and January, then returns in March, so autumn and winter dates are there if the sea is not the point. Dates around the winter holidays are the busy ones in that stretch, so book them early. Whichever month you choose, moving your departure by a day or two often shifts the fare more than picking a different week.
Airlines and what to expect
What the fare includes matters more here than the logo on the tail. Aer Lingus, British Airways, Air France, KLM, Lufthansa, Lufthansa City Airlines, Swiss, Turkish Airlines and Aegean Airlines sell full-service tickets, where a cabin bag is normally part of the fare and checked bags, seat selection and meals on some tickets are the extras that surface at checkout. Eurowings prices closer to a low-cost model, so read its fare tiers before you compare. Nobody on this list flies the pairing nonstop; each carrier connects through its own hub, which is why two tickets with the same price can differ by hours in total travel time.
Arriving — Varna
Arrange the last stretch before you land. Varna Airport is the only airport serving the city, and it sits a short drive from the centre, with a taxi or pre-booked transfer as the usual way in and local buses running as well. The terminal is compact and easy to leave, but in the summer months the arrivals hall gets busy, so allow extra time. If you are continuing to the resorts along the coast, book that transfer ahead as well, since demand peaks with the season.

Check before you book
- Confirm your ticket really starts at Dublin Airport and ends at Varna Airport, the only airports serving each city.
- Check what the fare includes before you pay, because Eurowings and the lighter tickets treat checked bags and seat choice as extras.
- Check the entry rules for Bulgaria, including passport validity and whether your nationality needs a visa.
- If your connection is on two separate tickets, leave a long gap between flights, since the second airline will not rebook you if the first runs late.
- Compare June against July and the autumn dates, since June sits at the cheap end of the fare calendar here.
