Linxair

Linxair was a business airline based in Slovenia. It was established and started operations in 1999 at its base, Ljubljana Jože Pučnik Airport (LJU). Linxair was the fastest-growing aviation company in Slovenian history and the biggest business aviation operator in the area of former Yugoslavia. Due to financial difficulties which started in 2009, the company declared bankruptcy in 2014. Shortly before bankruptcy, the company headquarters were moved from Ljubljana to Slovenj Gradec. A small part of the fleet continued operation under another operator, SiAvia.
