NEWS FLASH
Swiss International Air Lines has continued to perform strongly on its flights between Zurich and Ljubljana, making it one of the fastest-growing carriers on the Slovenian market. The airline handled 54.907 passengers on its flights between the two cities, representing an increase of 32.9% on the same period last year, carrying an additional 13.611 travellers. The figure is also an 8.6% improvement on the pre-pandemic 2019 when the route was served by Adria Airways. As previously reported, Swiss will grow its operations to the Slovenian capital this coming winter season and plans to maintain double daily flights between the two, up from last winter’s twelve weekly.
Bravo Fraport!

The title should be "Lufthansa Group sees strong Ljubljana performance".
Swiss is great. Their connecting flights via ZRH are insanely cheap, often much cheaper than flying directly from nearby airports. I've used them a lot this year. I hope they eventually upgrade to 3x daily.
ReplyDeleteLikewise. SWISS and Turkish are both excellent carriers stuck at 2 daily, hopefully they add a 3rd one next year
DeleteWith 2 daily flights you can catch all connections you need. Nobody is "stuck", its just market reality.
DeleteLJU only needs 5 daily to FRA, nothing else.
DeleteSwiss will become even more important for LJU once they start some 3rd daily flights
ReplyDeleteLJU-ZRH:
LX 2279 ETD 0635h daily
LX 2273 ETD 1040h 2-3 weekdays
LX 2275 ETD 1450h daily
LX 2277 ETD 1920h 2-3 weekdays
lets hope this happens as of SUTT 2026
Slovenians preferred transfer hub was and still is ZRH
But yep, also prices on LX to beyond ZRH destinations are often really affordable
Could they apply for subsidies for those flights(3rd daily) ?
DeleteNo.
DeleteThey can apply to FRAPORT incentive scheme for increased frequencies and I am sure they will.
DeleteSwiss have perfect time schedule for LJU LIS route.
ReplyDeleteKakšni pa so LF za FRA, CDG, BEG, MAD, SKP, MUC, WAW in IST?
ReplyDeletePlanes to MAD are 90+% full every time. Would be suprised if they don't upgrade the service next year.
DeleteIST LF is 80+% and SKP is almost 90%
DeleteMAD was preforming well also the last time they started flights with a320 and were mostly filled by spanish turists visiting slovenia… But I don’t onow why they didn’t make it year round or at least summer seaonal…
DeleteEven in 2020 when they planned to operate 4 weekly they upgraded some flights to A321. Also how dare you mention tourists in Slovenia. Don't you know all of them come with cars?
DeleteVery nice.
