How to reach Ljubljana Airport from the city and elsewhere — by shared electric car, bus, shuttle, taxi or your own car.
A green, affordable and safe way to the airport: with a shared electric car you avoid parking fees and hunting for a space. There are 30 parking spaces reserved for Avant2Go cars at the airport (10 outdoors, 20 in the basement of the multi-storey car park). You book and unlock the car in the app; you need a valid driving licence and must be at least 21.
Public bus services to the airport are run by Arriva. Buses leave Ljubljana main bus station from stand 28 and stop at the airport opposite Terminal A. There are also lines to Kranj and Bled.
On a weekday (search for Tuesday 10 Nov 2026) the first bus from Ljubljana leaves at 05:10 and the last at 20:10; from the airport the first leaves at 06:02 and the last at 22:44. Most journeys take 30 minutes. There are fewer departures on Sundays, so check the timetable for your date.
The airport's shuttle page lists GoOpti as the provider. Book online with the operator, or buy a ticket on arrival at the shuttle desk in Terminal B. GoOpti quotes fares 'from €14' between the airport and Ljubljana.
Official taxi ranks are in front of Terminal B; taxis holding the airport operator's permit display it behind the windscreen. According to the published list (valid 16 Apr 2026 to 31 Mar 2027), the indicative fare to Ljubljana bus station ranges from €37.95 to €63.50 depending on the operator (may vary by ±10%). Make sure the meter is on and ask for a receipt.
The airport is at Brnik, about 25 km north of Ljubljana city centre. The airport's official site does not state a recommended route or typical drive time, so check these in your navigation app before setting off.
Car hire desks are in two places: the ground floor of the multi-storey car park (PH) and the arrivals hall of Terminal B. Cars are returned at the multi-storey car park; follow the 'rent-a-car return' signs from the main road.
