      I think Slovenia is too small to be served via two airports by a single airline.

      What about those two airports being served by two different airlines?

      1X weekly to maribor (winter schedule), 1x portoroz (summer schedule) would def work for ASL

      You would need at least 2-3x weekly, year round to have some sort of consistency, and decent return options. Even though most of the passengers would be transfers, I would assume. (could be wrong though).

      ATR is weight restricted in POW which means the flight could never be full.

    9. What about for MBX?

    10. no restriction for ATR, A320 type and similar etc, at MBX can land even A330 but with restriction.

      Perhaps MBX could be an option once 3 daily is established and JU start sending the A319 on BEG-LJU. I'm sure MBX would offer JU discounts to at least have an airline operating there.

    12. @sloavio no restrictions.MBX handled already several flights by AN124 (Antonov Airlines & Volga-Dnepr) so the mentioned A330 is easy one....

      Not necessarily. An-124 is a quad-jet and might have a shorter takeoff run than A330.

      For instance A340 has shorter takeoff run than A330 although it's a larger aircraft.

    14. Alr8 Andrej, did not know that. I thought that was the info last time I spoke with one of the guys working at the ATC. Good to know. Are there different restrictions for pax ac and cargo ac?

    What I don't understand is why isn't JU flying to Split in summer. It's about the same size as Ljubljana and I think there is a lot of potential.

      Yes, there has to be demand from Split

      True, 2-3x weekly could work with the ATR in winter.

      Having a full summer season for both SPU and DBV would be great as a start. At least daily flights in the summer, perhaps 9 pw with 2 extra morning flights for JFK connections.

      Agree. Maybe not 3x weekly but still, there is definitely potential demand.
