Weather Briefing
VFRBurgas Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with clear skies and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the east (100°) at 8 knots. Runway 04/22 is favored with a 4-knot headwind and 7-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. Skies are clear with unlimited ceiling.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 22°C (72°F) with a dewpoint of 18°C. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread suggests high humidity and potential for visibility restrictions, especially during cooling periods.
Forecast Outlook
The TAF forecast covers the next 24 hours. The forecast shows a transition between VFR and IFR conditions. Pilots should monitor the forecast closely and have an alternate airport plan. Expected weather includes: Thunderstorm Rain, Mist. There is a 30% probability of MVFR conditions with Thunderstorm Rain between 12:00Z and 17:00Z. There is a 40% probability of LIFR conditions with Mist between 21:00Z and 01:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight. The forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.
This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About Burgas Airport
Overview
Burgas Airport serves as a key regional airport located in eastern Bulgaria on the Black Sea coast. Situated at 135 feet mean sea level with coordinates 42.569917, 27.515173, the airport is classified as a large airport handling significant passenger and cargo traffic. Its strategic location makes it a crucial transportation hub for the Burgas region and coastal tourism.
Flying Conditions
The airport's coastal position introduces maritime weather influences with potential wind shear and rapid atmospheric changes. Elevation at 135 ft MSL provides relatively stable approach conditions, though pilots should anticipate potential sea breeze effects during summer months. Prevailing wind patterns can significantly impact runway 04/22 operations.
Notable Features
The airport features a substantial runway 04/22 measuring 10,499 feet long, constructed of concrete, which supports a wide range of aircraft types and sizes. Its geographic positioning near the Black Sea creates unique aeronautical considerations, including potential maritime microclimate effects and visibility variations. The concrete runway provides robust surface conditions for heavy aircraft operations.
Approach Considerations
Runway 04/22's extensive length of 10,499 feet allows flexible approach and landing options for multiple aircraft categories. Pilots should carefully assess wind direction and velocity when selecting runway orientation, with particular attention to potential crosswind components. The concrete runway surface supports stable landing characteristics across various meteorological conditions.
