Ljubljana Airport

Ljubljana Airport is small and easy accessible. There are two security gates to access the departure area, but everything goes smoothly. If you do not want to wait, it is recommended that you register before for the card Fly Ljubljana (it is free online) and you can have the priority boarding and use the priority line for the security. It saves you time. After the security you have two departure areas - on the ground floor and on the first floor. First floor is renewed, bathrooms are better upstairs. If you have children, you have a very nice children's playground on the first floor (and even if you departing from the ground floor, you can use the playground upstairs. You will be at your gates on ground floor in 2 minutes). Free strollers for rent are available on the first floor by the elevator. Business lounge is very nice, you get some cold refreshments (no hot ones) and the rest rooms are very nice. At the arrivals there are only two luggage belts, but everything goes smoothly. You are outside in less than 20 minutes after landing.

A small facility yet very modern and efficient although the arrivals/luggage pick-up could be a bit crowded if more than one flight arrives at the same time.

Great little airport. Flew through security. I mistakenly left a bottle of water in my backpack which was well and truly over the 100ml liquid limit however the man was very polite in asking me to remove it. There was no line for passport control however there is only a small cafe and a duty free shop about a quarter of the size as the main one after the passport checks.

I was using this airport for my late evening departure flight to Istanbul on 28th of August. The airport was nearly empty and everything went smoothly. The airport is conveniently reached by the airport shuttle from Central Bus Station which costs 4.10 Euro. It is a clean and easy to navigate airport due to its size. Staff at the check- in counter security officers and immigration officer were really friendly and kind. There are limited numbers of restaurants and duty free outlets. However the free Wi-Fi is very much appreciated.

I used LJU twice last week for arrival and departure. The airport is small as well as amount of flights and passenger volumes. So it easily gets crowded when two planes arrive one after another. In my case everything was ok. No wait at immigration somewhat longish wait for bags to arrive clean toilets shuttle buses were simple to find nice staff and ok cafes. On departure effective and polite security staff fast immigration no wait at check in. Nothing spectacular but just fine. Free wifi across the building is a huge plus! Highly recommended.

Quite pleasant small airport. Too small check-in area which makes a crowd. Toilets clean cafe decent security check mostly fast. New departure area (gates 1-8) modern spacious enough seats. Arrival area small and efficient baggage arrives quickly on one of 2 conveyor belts. Airport connection with Ljubljana is a hassle.

The airport needs a facelift. Means a complete new departure and arrival building has to be built (planned since years but again postponed). The transport from the airport to the city or surrounding areas is still a hassle. The only plus is the new area with the 4 jetbridges which has plenty of seating available however no stores or restaurant.

Not much to add to my previous posting other than the new airport extension is attractive very light and open with plenty of seating. Getting to and from the airport is still a hassle - passengers wanting to get to Ljubljana have a choice between an overpriced taxi an irregular city bus and an erratic private shuttle service. All of which cost more than at a comparative western European airport!

Brnik is currently in the process of major development to increase capacity and comply with EU Schengen requirements. The departure lounge size is currently reduced while this work takes place. Once complete then direct access to aircraft will be possible but in the meantime all flights require a bus - even though the plane is only 50m away from the gate! Nevertheless the airport remains one of the easiest to get through both for departure and arrivals and the facilities are perfectly adequate in terms of duty free snack bar etc.
