MBXLocation of airport in Slovenia
Maribor Edvard Rusjan Airport (Template:Lang-sl) (IATA: MBX, ICAO: LJMB) is the second biggest airport in Slovenia, serving the city of Maribor. It is located 9 km (5.6 mi) south of the Maribor railway station, near Slivnica. The airport currently has one scheduled flight and there are also seasonal charter flights to coastal destinations.
It is named after the Slovene pioneer aviator Edvard Rusjan.
When Slovenia was a part of Yugoslavia, the airport was regularly served by state airline JAT, connecting mainly Belgrade and the Croatian Adriatic coast. Later, the airport was served with scheduled flights by Slovenian Spirit, an arm of Styrian Spirit, which offered scheduled flights to Paris and Salzburg until March 2006, when Styrian Spirit ended operations due to insolvency.
On 8 March 2007 Ryanair announced that it would commence service between London-Stansted and Maribor in June 2007 three times weekly. The expectations from this service included an increase in tourist exploration of the region, which has great potential for all-year-round offerings. The service started on 7 June 2007 and ended 27 March 2008.
The airport's new Terminal, costing some 15 million Euros, was opened on 21 November 2012. Capacity will be at least 600,000 pax/year.
Ground transportation
Maribor Airport, which is close to the A1 and right next to the A4 motorway, is easily accessed by road. There are car hire firms based at the airport.
