Iberia Group has launched direct flights between Madrid and Ljubljana, improving transportation links between Spain and Slovenia. The first flight departed from Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas Airport and arrived at Jože Pučnik Airport after a flight duration of approximately two and a half hours.

This route will be serviced twice a week, on Mondays and Thursdays. Tickets can be purchased starting from 89 euros one way, provided a return ticket is bought, on the Iberia website and through travel agencies.

The route is operated by a Canadair Regional Jet 1000, which accommodates 100 passengers. The total capacity for the summer season is 2,500 seats, offering numerous opportunities for travelers.

National Gallery of Slovenia

One of the notable places is also the National Gallery of Slovenia, which houses a rich collection of Slovenian fine art from the medieval period to the present day. The gallery offers a unique opportunity to explore the country's cultural heritage and the works of famous Slovenian artists

Ljubljana Castle

Ljubljana offers visitors numerous historical and cultural attractions. One of the city's main gems is Ljubljana Castle, located on a hill with a panoramic view of the city. The castle's history spans over 900 years, making it a must-visit destination.

Triple Bridge

Another significant attraction is the Triple Bridge, which connects the historical city center with modern areas. This unique architectural ensemble was designed by the renowned Slovenian architect Jože Plečnik and is a symbol of Ljubljana.

The new route between Madrid and Ljubljana is expected to enhance the tourist appeal of both cities and strengthen economic ties between Spain and Slovenia. This event opens up new opportunities for cultural exchange and mutual cooperation.
