Ljubljana Jože Pučnik Airport's 25-month passenger growth streak has come to an end with its figures declining 3.3% in November, during which it handled 117.554 travellers. The number of aircraft movements stood at 2.512, down 6.3%. Despite the decline, Slovenia's busiest airport surpassed its 2017 end-of-year-result in late November and is on course to handle 1.8 million passengers this year. Over the past eleven months, Ljubljana Airport welcomed 1.703.352 travellers through its doors, representing an increase of 8.3% on the same period last year. Aircraft movements were up 1.1% to 11.324. "This year's traffic growth will be around 8.5% compared to last year, as we expect another 140.000 passengers by the end of 2018. Therefore, the new record will amount to roughly over 1.8 million passengers, which was also our forecast at the beginning of the year", Fraport Slovenia said.

They operated 12 weekly flights with the Atr (66 and 70 seats) so that means they roughly offered 6.996 seats on a total of 53 flights. Their LF this July was around 78.4% which isn't that bad.
Overall their winter LF might have been around 50% though.
