None of the possible answers of the question regarding the airports is correct.
Bulgaria has 4 (5 with G. Oriahovitsa acting as an emergency airport) international airports and a WAY more military + agricultural airports.
Just think of D. Mitropolia, Krumovo, Graf Ignatievo and Bezmer.

  That’s true, there might be many more, but I have used data from CIA. If you can provide me with a better source, I’d update the answers.
