Changes remain possible.
Saturday twice daily is a bit niche don't we think?
ReplyDeleteNo not really, it's a busy day for leisure travel
DeleteNot just that. Saturday could also serve passengers who left North America on Friday afternoon/evening.
DeleteWhy no word on LHR-DBV flights and the LCY-SPU flights?
DeleteBecause there is no change on last year.
DeleteDid BA operate LHR-DBV 3 daily on certain days? I thought that is also new.
DeleteThe news would be the extension of the STN-SPU flights throughout 2025.
DeleteLjubljana keeps winning? At least that's been the tale these past weeks
ReplyDeletePassenger nunbers down in November. BA not flying whole winter, but sure it 'keeps winning'.
DeleteSure, but the news for 2025 have been incredibly good so far.
DeleteNews vs. reality :)
DeleteExactly, if the passenger numbers don't improve every month, they should just close the airport. Slovenians prefer Ryanair from Trieste anyway.
DeleteYes the winter is weak, but next summer looks like it's gonna go insane with all the increases in frequency, capacity, and new flights
Deleteyes from march on it will look more like a normal airport ... hopefully we wont go back to winter sleep mode after summer
DeleteEasyjet is also daily in July and August instead of 6 weekly.
ReplyDeleteOn LGW-LJU*
DeleteWhoa, so that's 2 extra weekly to London during summer. Not the best, but definitely a step in the right direction
Deleteryanair should start from stansted ...
DeleteFraport doesn't give discounts to Ryanair
DeleteEven if Fraport lets Ryanair come for free, they won't come. Ryanair needs to be paid to come.
DeleteCarport and Ryanair have an excellent relationship in Greece. Maybe the problem is Ljubljana?
Delete^ They don't. Ryanair's CCO in an interview this week criticized Fraport Greece and said they are not interested in growing traffic in winter. Which is a lie of course. What he meant to say is that they were not interested in giving additional discounts to Ryanair to grow there in winter.
DeleteGreat news for LJU! Bravo Fraport, good job!
ReplyDeleteLOL!!!
DeleteGlad to hear they are back in Ljubljana with more frequency. hopefully they will stay year round
ReplyDeleteWhen could they realistically announce the winter timetable?
DeleteApril
DeleteI heard Fraport will raise the fees just to deter non LHG carriers from coming to LJU. And the GOV? No action?
ReplyDeleteHow much had you drunk before the voices told you that?
DeleteHow dare you say that! LJU is the cheapest airport in Europe!
DeleteLX currently still down to 11 weekly in SUTT. The for the WITT adjusted schedule has not been confirmed yet for SUTT 2025
ReplyDeletethe 2nd daily Saturday flight is actually from 17 May onwards
ReplyDeleteI really hope BA reconsiders year-round operations to Ljubljana
ReplyDeleteTo me it’s strange to have 8pw in summer and no flights in winter
DeleteUnfortunately there is little business travel needs and very few tourists in winter. British skiers go to higher and bigger resorts with better snow.
DeleteVery little business travel thats why business class is almost full (and not 2 rows, but 4+) on all LHG flights. Makes sense.
DeleteSecond daily flight on mon, tue and sun…. But when is the eleventh flight?
DeleteOk LHR to SPU on Sunday has 3 daily flights
DeleteToday I learned that only business people fly in business class.
