Air travel to Maribor
Air travel to Maribor and Slovenia is really easy! You first need to get to London. There is a direct Ryanair flight from London Stansted airport in England (STN) to Graz in Austria (GRZ) which is just a 30 minute drive away from Maribor. You can also fly to Ljubljana (LJU) with EasyJet from London Stansted or Adria Airways from London Gatwick. Ljubljana is then only an hour drive from Maribor. Air travel London Stansted-Graz-London Stansted (Ryanair):Before booking Ryanair flight from London Stansted to Graz and from Graz to London Stansted, please check for all changes in timetables and additional flights (www.ryanair.com). Notes: Checked-in baggage - 1 piece allowed per person (15 kg); Carry on baggage (10 kg, 8in x 16in x 21in); Ryanair will charge £15 or €15 for every kg exceeding 15kg allowance (at the airport).

Even the airports in Vienna-Austria (VIE) and Trieste-Italy (TRS) are only 150 miles or 2 and a half car-hours away so possibilities are really great. Because of this brilliant connectivity with London airports air travel to Slovenia is relatively easy. To make planning easier I have put together plans for air travel to London from some major destinations in North America.
Our daughter particularly enjoys Graz airport because it is really kids friendly...

Airport transferGraz airport is only half an hour drive away from Slovenian border and Maribor but rent-a-car is definitely the most convenient option if planning to explore Slovenia, Austria and beyond. As I already said, booking your car online before arriving is by far the most convenient option. The second best option is to take a taxi (€60 from Graz airport to Maribor). You can also take a train from Graz to Maribor. There is a possibility to take a train from the airport but with only three direct trains per day this may prove inconvenient. Ljubljana airport is pretty much the same. The best option is rent-a-car though you can take a taxi to Ljubljana railway station (it takes about 25 minutes and costs €40) or a bus (every hour weekdays and every two hours during weekends, one way ticket costs 4.10 EUR) and then continue your journey to Maribor by train. Please, bear in mind that this is an ordinary busy local bus with many stops and the journey takes some 50 minutes. There is also a shuttle connection between Ljubljana city and Ljubljana airport. The journey time is about 30 minutes. Tickets can be purchased from the bus driver. The entry point for the shuttle is at Ljubljana bus station - Adria Airways terminal.
Please bear in mind that that journey could take more than 30 minutes (depends on traffic conditions).
