According to the Bulgarian Hotel Association, there is a significant increase in early bookings for the summer tourist season on Bulgaria's Black Sea coast.

The main markets being targeted remain Poland, the Czech Republic, the United Kingdom and Germany. Although a rise in holiday prices is expected, the industry assures that it will remain below 10%, reported BGNES. According to tourism managers, the recovery of the German market is a key factor for the positive growth. Higher demand is being reported thanks to increased flight connections from Germany to Bulgaria.

Tour operators are also reporting increased interest from countries like the UK, Poland and the Czech Republic. They expect a 5-10% rise in the number of tourists.
