Ljubljana Airport recorded a year-on-year decline in passenger numbers in January 2025. Air France's performance was particularly striking, with the largest negative change, a decline of 604 passengers. This is related to the airline's reduced flight frequencies, which saw an average load factor of 76,9%. Similarly, Wizz Air experienced a decline of 584 passengers on its Skopje route, with fewer passengers.
In contrast, Lufthansa and Swiss, both part of the Lufthansa Group, recorded the largest increases. Each airline recorded over 2025 additional passengers in January 1.000 compared to January 2024. However, Lufthansa, with its two connections to Ljubljana, recorded a smaller increase than Turkish Airlines, which welcomed more passengers on board with only one connection.
The total number of passengers at Ljubljana Airport nevertheless declined. This was mainly due to seasonal adjustments and the cancellation of some winter services. British Airways suspended its flights to Ljubljana during the winter, while Wizz Air also discontinued its London service. Overall, there was a noticeable decline in passenger numbers in January 2025, due to the reduced number of frequencies and the cancellation of certain services.
Despite the negative development in January, some airlines achieved stable results. Air Serbia remained almost at the previous year's level despite reducing capacity, and Air Montenegro even recorded 313 additional passengers.
