Government plans to call another tender to sell the airport near the northern city of Targovishte , transport minister Aleksandar Tsvetkov informs. Last month, it cancelled the decision of the previous cabinet to allow the sale of the airport due to number of irregularities in the procedure, including unrealistically low price of the deal for the airport’s assets. The initial price would be set at BGN 1.41mn (EUR 720, 410), almost three times higher than the sale price in the previous tender. The facility belongs to Plovdiv Airport and has not been active since 1998.  Targovishte Airport is located on a 943,388 sqm land plot and comprises two buildings. The local holding Alpha Finance controls 75% of Plovdiv Airport while the remaining part is owned by the transport ministry.
