You are at InterContinental Hotel Ljubljana and you need to get to Brnik Airport (LJU) — about 26 km northwest of the city centre, roughly 25–35 minutes by car depending on traffic. There are several ways to do this. We will tell you about all of them.
Most people search for the cheapest option. We think you should search for the right one. Here is a straight comparison of everything available from InterContinental Hotel to Brnik Airport:
| Option | Price | Hotel pickup? | Private? | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 🚌 Public airport bus | €4.10 / person | ✗ Bus station only | ✗ Shared | Solo traveller, 1 bag, no rush |
| 🔀 GoOpti (shared) | €10–20 / person | ✓ Usually yes | ✗ Shared, detours | Budget traveller, flexible timing |
| 🏨 Hotel shuttle | €50–100+ | ✓ Yes | ✓ Usually | Ask reception — sometimes good value |
| 🚖 Taxi Legende | from €40 / car | ✓ Always | ✓ Always | 2+ people, luggage, early flights, peace of mind |
No train runs directly to Brnik Airport — the nearest station is Kranj, about 20 minutes away by taxi. The airport bus runs hourly from Ljubljana's central bus station, not from hotels.
Most five-star hotels in Ljubljana offer their own shuttle to the airport. It is worth asking at reception — sometimes it is included, sometimes €60–80, sometimes very good. We are not going to pretend it does not exist.
What we offer is different: an independent driver, a fixed price agreed before you travel, no loyalty to any hotel's preferred vendor, and 15 years of doing exactly this. If you have luggage, a group, or a specific pickup time — we are probably the better call. If you are travelling solo with a carry-on, the public bus from the city centre costs €4.10. Genuinely.
We will be here when you need us. And honest with you when you don't.

No — there is no direct train to the airport. The closest station is Kranj, about 20 minutes from Brnik by taxi. The most practical public option is the airport bus from Ljubljana's central bus station (€4.10, roughly hourly).
GoOpti is a shared transfer service — you share the vehicle with other passengers. Prices are typically €10–20 per person. It is a good budget option if you travel solo, have a flexible schedule and do not mind detours for other pickups. For groups, early flights, or when timing matters, a private transfer is usually better value overall.
Many Ljubljana hotels offer their own transfer — it is worth asking at reception. Prices vary from €50 to over €100. If the hotel option works for you, use it. If not — or if you want a comparison — we are here.
From €40 for a car (up to 4 passengers), from €60 for a van (up to 8). The exact price depends on your hotel's location and is confirmed at booking — it does not change.
Yes — same price in both directions. We track your flight and adjust pickup if the flight is delayed. No extra charge for delays.
