The Bulgarian GullivAir has touched down in Skopje this morning after its first flight from Sofia. The ATR72-600 aircraft with 70 seats capacity arrived in Skopje at 05:41 o'clock in the morning. The flight took only 34 minutes. The aircraft departed back for Sofia at 06:49 in the morning and arrived just after 32 minutes.
GullivAir will operate twice a week between Skopje and Sofia during this summer season, every Monday and Saturday in the early morning hours with ATR72-600 turboprop aircraft.
“As TAV we are excited to mark and celebrate GullivAir’s entrance on the Macedonian market, with today’s launch of the new route from Sofia to Skopje. The Macedonian capital will be connected to the Bulgarian capital, by air, twice a week, on Saturdays and Mondays, as of today, March 26th. The airline will fly to Skopje International Airport for the first time, so we can add GullivAir as new airline and the flights Sofia–Skopje–Sofia as new air route to the portfolio of Skopje International Airport and Macedonian aviation market in general, after a longer period of time. We are happy that the airline started its operations to and from Skopje Airport despite the still ongoing covid pandemic. Sofia–Skopje or Sofia–Skopje flights now connects both capitals in just 30 minutes. We believe that this route has a great potential, both for leisure and for business travelers. Bulgarian and Macedonian passengers may find this route useful and beneficial to visit the capitals of both countries and at the same time they can continue their travel to other more distant destination to other foreign countries. The introduction of this air connection will contribute not only to the development of Macedonian aviation, but also to the economic cooperation between both countries. We look forward to long-term and proliferate cooperation and many happy and satisfied passengers.”, stated Metin Batak, TAV Macedonia General Manager.
