Gorna Oryahovitsa Airport

Gorna Oryahovitsa Airport (IATA code: GOZ, ICAO code: LBGO) is an international airport located in central northern Bulgaria. It is at equal distances to the major administrative centers - Sofia, Varna, Ruse, Plovdiv, Stara Zagora, Pleven, Bourgas, and 12 kilometers from Veliko Tarnovo, the old Bulgarian capital

The port is used predominantly for cargo, as the last regular passenger flights to Sofia were abolished in the end of the last decade. Although there are no scheduled flights to and from the airport, there is a small number of charters and business jets using it. The charter flights are mainly used from football teams, which are playing with PFC Litex Lovech in the Lovech town which is 80 kilometers farther from the airport.

The airport is believed to have very good prospective, because of its situation in the centre of the country, the lack of big airports nearby, and the huge number of tourists in the area coming from abroad, but unfortunately it is the most undeveloped of the five international airports in Bulgaria

Until 2002, the airport was used by the Bulgarian division of Ideal Standard as cargo hub for its Bulgarian production, but ceased operations due to changes in logistics.
