Flight Deals from Los Angeles to Ljubljana from $632

The route from Los Angeles to Ljubljana is about 6,170 miles. No nonstop flight is scheduled, so the journey requires a connection.

Methodology

Flight times and distances come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). The typical flight time is the median scheduled block time across all carriers on the route, computed the same way in both directions so the difference reflects prevailing winds rather than any change in method. Distance is the great-circle distance between the two airports, so the actual flown track is typically 2-5% longer.

There is no nonstop service from Los Angeles to Ljubljana. The shortest connecting routing is on British Airways via London Heathrow, at 14 hours 30 minutes total — a 10-hour 25-minute leg, a 1-hour 45-minute layover, and a 2-hour 20-minute second leg. KLM via Amsterdam (14h 35m) and Air France via Paris (14h 50m) are the next-quickest one-stop options.

Methodology

Airlines and weekly frequencies are compiled from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). We count each operating carrier's scheduled weekly departures and the days it flies; where there is no nonstop service, connecting carriers are identified by linking scheduled nonstop segments through common hub airports. Where a median fare is shown for a carrier, it reflects the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours.

From Ljubljana Jože Pučnik Airport, the most-used and cheapest option is the public bus (route 28, operated by Arriva Slovenia), which runs at least hourly between about 5:00 and 21:00 and costs roughly €3.30 on weekdays or €1.30 on weekends, taking about 30–40 minutes to the main bus station. Taxis are available 24/7 outside the terminal and are the fastest door-to-door choice, typically costing €25–45 for the roughly 26 km ride. Private shuttles and transfers (GoOpti, Nomago, MNJ Shuttle, Markun Shuttle, ZUP prevozi) offer pre-booked convenience, while car rental desks (Sixt, Avis, Hertz, and others) are on site for travelers who want to drive. There is no direct rail link to the airport, though a combined bus–train ticket can be purchased at the airport for onward rail travel. Most travelers use the bus for its low cost and reliable hourly frequency.

There is no nonstop red-eye from Los Angeles to Ljubljana, but overnight connecting itineraries are available, with the long transatlantic leg departing between roughly 3:05 PM and 6:40 PM and arriving in Europe the next morning. For example, British Airways and American depart Los Angeles around 3:45 PM to 6:10 PM and land at London Heathrow between 10:15 AM and 12:45 PM the next morning before connecting onward, while Lufthansa departs around 3:05 PM to 6:40 PM and arrives in Frankfurt or Munich between 11:00 AM and 2:35 PM, and KLM departs 4:45 PM arriving Amsterdam at 12:00 PM.

Methodology

Red-eye flights are identified from scheduled local departure and arrival times and block times in our flight-schedule database — built from published airline timetables and official schedule data, including U.S. Department of Transportation records for domestic routes. A flight counts as a red-eye when it departs in the afternoon or evening (3 p.m. or later local time) or in the early hours before 4 a.m., and is in the air at some point between midnight and 4 a.m. local time at both its departure airport and its arrival airport. An evening flight that lands before midnight at its destination is never counted, nor is a morning departure or a daytime long-haul that reaches the next calendar date only because of time zones. Each red-eye is labelled with its timing (for example, overnight and landing the next morning, or late-night and landing after midnight). For connecting itineraries the same rule is applied to the longer leg, from one representative day's flight search.

There is no nonstop service from Los Angeles to Ljubljana. The quickest one-stop routings are on British Airways via London Heathrow (about 14h 30m), KLM via Amsterdam (14h 35m), and Air France via Paris CDG (14h 50m). Lufthansa connects via Munich or Frankfurt, American Airlines via London Heathrow, and Turkish Airlines via Istanbul. British Airways offers the most frequent one-stop pattern, with roughly 11 flights on the representative day, followed by American Airlines with 5 and KLM with 3.

Ljubljana has one airport, Jože Pučnik Airport, about 26 km north of the city centre. It is the only commercial airport serving Ljubljana and handles all scheduled flights.

Getting from downtown Los Angeles to LAX is easiest by rail: take the Metro C Line or K Line to the LAX/Metro Transit Center, then board the free shuttle that serves all terminals. The LAX FlyAway bus from Union Station is a popular nonstop shuttle option, running every 15 minutes and taking about 30–40 minutes. Ride-share services like Uber and Lyft and taxis are faster door-to-door but cost considerably more, while driving yourself means dealing with terminal traffic and paying for airport parking. The FlyAway bus is the most popular budget-friendly choice, while ride-share or taxi is fastest when traffic is light.

Methodology

Aircraft types come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). For U.S. routes the type is grounded in the tail number that actually operated the flight; elsewhere it comes from the airline's filed equipment code. Where the source does not commit to a specific variant we name the aircraft family (for example Airbus A320 family) rather than guess, and where no reliable type is on file the aircraft is omitted rather than estimated. Types describe typical scheduled equipment and can vary with seasonal or day-of-week assignments and last-minute swaps.
