How to get to Slovenia
– By plane: Ljubljana is easily accessible from different destinations. The country’s main “Ljubljana Jože Pučnik Airport” is located 26 kilometres from the city, 25 minutes away by car. Slovenia’s national carrier Adria Airways, a regional partner of Star Alliance, offers regular flights to most major European cities (Amsterdam, Barcelona, Frankfurt, London, Munich, Skopje, Vienna, Zurich…). In addition, two low-cost airlines, EasyJet and Wizz Air, fly to London, Paris and Brussels. For more information visit, http://www.lju-airport.si/.
Another possibility is to fly to one of the foreign airports in the neighbourhood (Trieste, Venice, Klagenfurt) and access Slovenia from there by bus, train or rented car. Transport services from nearby airports to Slovenia are also offered by the low-cost carrier GoOpti .
– By car: If travelling by car you can reach Slovenia via one of the border crossings with Italy, Austria, Hungary or Croatia. Ljubljana is located at the crossroads of the country’s most important road routes. The distances from some major EU cities are as follows: Budapest – 491 km, Graz – 202 km, Milano – 519 km, Munich – 408 km, Prague – 609 km, Salzburg – 290 km, Trieste – 100 km, Venice – 242 km, Vienna – 380 km, Zagreb – 135 km.

– By train: Ljubljana has also good international rail connections. Travel costs are low, and almost the entire fleet of trains operated by the national railway company Slovenske železnice was modernised a few years ago.
