Preventive measures
Things have changed in aviation in last year, but the safety of our passengers remains our top priority. Several safety measures have been introduced at the airport for the safe reception of passengers and the safe work of employees, for which we have also obtained the AHA certificate (Airport Health Accreditation), issued by The International Airport Association International Airport (ACI), which confirms that we provide safe conditions for passengers and employees. Please inform yourself about these before arriving at the airport – click here, and start your travel carefree and safe.
We’re looking forward to the days when visitors are again able to experience the pleasant heartbeat of Slovenia.
