Adria Airways was the national airline of Slovenia, founded in 1961 and headquartered in Ljubljana. It operated scheduled and charter flights across Europe and served as a key link between Slovenia and the broader international aviation network.
The airline was a member of the Star Alliance, enhancing its connectivity and code-share opportunities with major global carriers. It primarily operated from Ljubljana Jože Pučnik Airport and flew a regional jet fleet focused on European destinations.
Adria Airways ceased operations in September 2019 after facing severe financial difficulties, grounding its fleet and canceling all flights. The collapse left thousands of passengers stranded and marked the end of Slovenia's flag carrier.
