Hello all, does anyone know where to catch a coach from Sofia to Plovdiv?

And is there a coach that goes from Sofia Airport to Plovdiv?
I am not planning to go by train because i have 2 Large suitcases that i travel with.

I am arriving on the 24th of february at Sofia Airport so if someone can tell me the place
and if its not to much to ask the timetables as well of when and where the Coach/es are departing from in
Sofia.

Thanks for your answers in advance.

I am not sure about from the airport, but from the main bus terminal, (which is across from the main train station) there are buses that leave every hour from sofia to plovdiv... more frequently during the busy hours. A taxi to the bus terminal should cost you around 10-15 bgn.

There might be a place to catch them on their way out of sofia (as the airport is on that side) but the sofia-plovdiv line has a tendency to be rather full, so even if it does stop on the outskirts of the city, it is not guaranteed they would have a free space, so it is better to catch it at the main terminal.
