Passengers at the Sofia Airport will have access to higher-quality web access, it was reported. This will be possible thanks to a wireless network that would facilitate the transfer of data and information. The Executive Director of Sofia Airport, Hristo Shterionov, has already signed an agreement with a Chinese hi-tech company. The Sofia Airport will receive free software and hardware products, as well as free maintenance within a period of five years. The new system would also increase the working efficiency of employees and would shorten the time needed to perform basic operations. Funding is provided under the framework for cooperation between the Chinese government and the countries in Central and Eastern Europe.
