Cheap Flights to Slovenia

As Slovenia becomes fashionable tourist destination in Central Europe more and more airlines launch cheap flights to Ljubljana or Maribor.

Three main low cost airlines operate flights directly to Slovenia: Ryanair, Easyjet and Wizzair but they currently fly only from two countries England and Belgium.

I'm sure that more low cost airlines will catch up on the popularity of Slovenia as a tourist destination and they will launch direct flights to the country.

Easyjet flights depart from London's Stansted airport and land at Ljublana's Brnik airport (that the current government renamed to Joze Pucnik Airport in 2007).

You' have other option sthough if you want to save on air tickets. Cheap airlines operate flights to major cities in Italy, Austria, Croatia and Hungary.

Ryanair flights to Trieste and Venice. from there you can get to Slovenia by car bus or train (it takes roughly 2 hours to get to Ljubljana).
