KUB Corporation together with SkyUp launch the first direct flight between Varna and Chisinau
The international development corporation KUB, together with SkyUp Airlines and other partners, is launching a direct regular air connection between Bulgaria and Moldova on the Varna–Chisinau–Varna route.
KUB is financing the charter and investing in ticket sales risk protection in order to boost Bulgaria’s tourism appeal and make holidays in Varna, already a well-developed resort, more accessible to citizens of other countries — primarily Moldova. Currently, there is no direct route between the two countries, and transfers through EU airports significantly increase ticket prices and reduce passenger flow.
The price of a one-way SkyUp charter ticket on the new route will be just €139, while a round trip from Chisinau to Varna and back will cost from €199. Operating partners of SkyUp Airlines on the new route include Noy Travel (Bulgaria), Sigo Marine Tour (Ukraine), and Family-tur (Moldova), which are already offering ticket booking services. The Ukrainian-Bulgarian public organization “My Razom” has joined the initiative as an informational partner.
“Bulgaria welcomed us warmly and gave us great opportunities for expansion and experience. Thanks to this new flight initiative, we can finally reciprocate by contributing to the growth of the local tourism sector, creating new jobs, and increasing the investment appeal not only of Varna but of the entire country,” said KUB Corporation CEO Oleh Nevzorov.
The first flight, for which booking is already open, will depart on June 7 this year. In the future, flights will operate weekly, every Saturday, throughout the summer — until September 13.

About KUB:
KUB is a corporation of developers specializing in the implementation of complex infrastructure projects, as well as business and property management. In particular, KUB carries out crisis management of sites where developers have failed to meet obligations to investors. Thanks to this, thousands of Ukrainian families have already received their own homes.
In 2022, the corporation entered the Bulgarian market by opening a branch in Varna, where it is implementing large-scale projects, including the multifunctional Forest Club complex with developed infrastructure and the elite seaside real estate collection Kabakum Collection.
The Ukrainian diaspora in Varna created a mural for the Day of Bravery
— one of the city’s underpasses was decorated with an ethnic art piece, initiated by “We Are Together”, the KUB construction company, and the Ukrainian restaurant “Stefania”.
The mural project turned into a vibrant family event, where anyone interested could take part in painting a fragment of the design and become part of the initiative. The master artists who developed the project held a small workshop on working with paints, and the “Stefania” restaurant provided complimentary treats for all participants, including families with children.
The main part of the artistic work lasted nearly two weeks and required more than 160 liters of paint. Residents of the area thanked the organizers for improving the underpass. According to the artists, beyond its aesthetic value, the mural also expresses the gratitude of the Ukrainian diaspora in Varna for the shelter provided during the war and symbolizes the mutual respect between the two nations for each other’s traditions.
“I’m used to working in a site-specific style, which involves ‘embedding’ the art piece into its surroundings. In this case, the setting is urban and next to a restaurant offering ethnic cuisine. That’s why the mural combines floral and marine motifs, common to both Ukrainian and Bulgarian cultures, along with geometric shapes that symbolize the city and coexistence,” explained one of the mural’s authors, Odesa-based artist Georgiy Khazankin.
The funding for the artistic work and the permits from the Varna Municipality were handled by the KUB Corporation—an international association of construction companies with Ukrainian roots that is currently executing a number of large-scale premium residential projects in the city—as well as the partner organization “My Razom,” which supports Ukrainian refugees in Varna.
“The construction business has taught me that the key to successful development and effective collaboration lies in treating completed work and new projects with the same level of responsibility. Ukrainians in Varna have come to love this wonderful city deeply, and I’m happy that we found a way for them to give back to its residents and administration, emphasizing our shared care for the living environment,” said Oleg Nevzorov, CEO of KUB Corporation.
“The underpass beautification campaign is one in a series of events we are planning and implementing in Bulgaria. Last year, we initiated a cleanup campaign in the Sea Garden, which was joined by both Bulgarians and Ukrainians. Recently, together with our partners, we cleaned up Kabakum Beach. We see this as a logical way to say “thank you” to the country that has helped and welcomed us. It’s also an effective form of integration into society. We thank our partners who support us, and the local residents who stand by us,” said Khrystyna Vier, head of the Ukrainian community organization “My Razom”.

The corporation has already provided housing for thousands of Ukrainian families.
In 2023, KUB entered the Bulgarian market by opening a branch in Varna, where it is implementing two large-scale projects: Forest Club, a multifunctional residential complex with developed infrastructure located in a forest area, and Aqua View Apartments, a residential complex with its own pool and parking, just 150 meters from the sea.
To support Ukrainians who were forced to flee their homes due to the war and relocate to Bulgaria, KUB Corporation is actively assisting the Bulgarian NGO “My Razom,” which helps displaced persons adapt, provides legal aid, and secures employment opportunities.
