PRB monitoring
▪ Bulgaria achieved a KEA performance of 2.48% compared to its target of 2.25% and did not contribute positively towards achieving the Union-wide target.
▪ It should be noted that KEA performance improved in comparison to 2020 despite a higher number of movements.
▪ Despite the shortest constrained route increasing in comparison to 2020, KEP performance improved by 0.26 p.p..
▪ The NSA states the reasons for potential non meeting of environmental targets are outside of the ANSP’s control and related to the geopolitical situation, airspace restrictions and user preferences.
▪ Bulgaria has no airports that are regulated under the RP3 performance and charging scheme.
Update on Military dimension of the plan
An impact analysis with suggestions for improvements has been provided to National Airspace Policy Body (NAPB). TRAs that blocked the accessibility with Gorna Oryahovitsa airport have been changed into PCAs along with relevant procedures. On-going action to improve airspace organisation in the vicinity of Plovdiv airport is to be fulfiled in present year.
Military - related measures implemented or planned to improve capacity
On recommendations within the the impact analysis NAPB should take particular decisions. It should be noted that military activity within Bulgarian airspace has been icreased in recent years, some of exercises are of ad-hoc nature, and is really dificult to provide best judgement.
