Aircraft selection: The five aircraft models displayed for this route are the most frequently used on that route in the flight records. Flights across the cities’ main airports are combined when selecting them.
Estimated flight times: Flight times are calculated estimates based on route distance, aircraft performance and recorded durations for the same aircraft model or comparable flights. Times are rounded to the nearest 5 minutes and may vary with routing and operating conditions. Flight-time calibration uses records from 2020 through October 2026.
Activity methodology: LunaJets filters and enriches the recorded flights by matching them to airports, cities and aircraft categories, then aggregating them. Figures cover 1 January to 31 December 2025. The figures include private and business jets, VIP aircraft and turboprops. Helicopters and scheduled airline flights are excluded. The data was generated on 14 October 2026. This generation date is separate from the activity year.
Definitions: A private aviation movement is one recorded departure or arrival. A flight between Sofia and Dubai counts once in this route total, in either direction. A return flight counts as a separate movement. Each city’s activity share divides the same route total by that city’s annual private aviation movements for the same year and airport coverage. Recorded activity combines both directions; guide prices describe the displayed one-way itinerary.
Busiest periods: Busiest periods identify a significant seasonal concentration in recorded movements in both directions during 2025. Isolated spikes are filtered out. Year-round means no qualifying seasonal concentration was identified, although activity can vary between months. A classification requires at least 30 annual movements, 99% statistical significance and an average monthly activity rate at least 1.75 times the rest of the year. Single-month periods also require recurrence checks using January to August 2026 records.

Dubai International Financial Centre pairs corporate offices with art galleries and restaurants, while Jumeirah offers beachside hotels and dining overlooking the sea. Along the creek, Al Fahidi’s historic neighbourhood provides a closer view of the city’s earlier life, with traditional architecture and cultural spaces among its narrow lanes.
Sofia combines Bulgaria’s government and business life with a historic centre and the mountain backdrop of Vitosha. Around Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, cultural landmarks sit close to central hotels, while Vitosha Boulevard offers cafés, restaurants and shopping. On the city’s southern edge, Boyana Church and the wooded slopes beyond add heritage and outdoor interest to a stay in the Bulgarian capital.
