Ljubljana Airport Adds Two Destinations for Winter Season

The network includes one more destination than last winter, following a strong summer season for Slovenia’s main aviation hub

Ljubljana Jože Pučnik Airport will offer direct flights to 22 destinations operated by 18 airlines under its winter flight schedule, which began on 26 October.

The new schedule introduces two destinations. AirBaltic has added Tenerife to its existing Canary Islands services, while EasyJet will launch flights to London Luton on 27 October. The route will become EasyJet’s fourth from Ljubljana, alongside London Gatwick, Manchester and Edinburgh. The airport is expected to offer 138,300 scheduled seats in November, a 10% increase compared with the same month last year. Fraport Slovenija, the airport’s operator, said regular services to major European transit hubs, including Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Paris and Istanbul, would continue throughout the winter, maintaining Slovenia’s connections with international markets.

The new schedule follows a record-breaking summer, with passenger numbers reaching an all-time monthly high of 222,958 in August. Traffic remained strong in September, bringing the total number of passengers handled during the first nine months of the year to 1.42 million, up 15.7% year-on-year.

Further expansion is planned for summer 2027, when United Airlines is expected to launch direct flights between Ljubljana and Newark Liberty International Airport near New York in May. EasyJet will also introduce a route to Berlin, while TUI will enter the Slovenian market with flights to Brussels and Düsseldorf, further broadening the airport’s network.
