Adria Airways Launches Ljubljana - Rome Route

Rome, 17 May

Slovenian flag carrier Adria Airways launched a regular route between Ljubljana and Rome on Wednesday. With the help of Italian partner, carrier Air One, the route is to be serviced four times a week.

Adria expects the new route to bring in around 9,000 passengers by the end of this year, mostly tourist but also businessmen.
Adria's CEO Tadej Tufek told the press in Rome on Wednesday that the Italian capital was also chosen due to its connections to other Italian and European destinations.
Compared to the same period last year, Adria Airways has increased the number of flights on its regular routes by 10%, while the number of passengers in the first four month of 2006 rose by 15%.
