 Adria Airways bus stop by Dabs
Cost was 5E per person including luggage. The journey takes 30 minutes with no stops besides the airport.
Other options are the public bus which is slightly cheaper and takes 47 minutes, arranging for pickup at your hotel by private shuttle for 8E or taxi which currently runs about 35E, details can be seen on this website. Leave a Comment

Ljubljana runs a cheap and efficient bus service to destinations all over the city, they run mostly from about 5am to 10.30pm, with a few main lines running later. Each journey will cost you 300 SIT, which is a little over a euro, and you will need the exact fare when you get on. To save yourself the hassle of having the exact change, and to save yourself a considerable amount of money, you can buy the little pink tokens instead, from the bus station, post offices, and other shops around the city. One word of warning, though: the bus drivers don't tend to speak English, so you'd better know where you are going!
You can also get buses to towns and cities all over Slovenia and beyond from the main bus station opposite the train station. You can get to the bus station from Preseren Square: walk up the right hand side of the pink church along Miklosiceva Cesta, and the station is right at the end of the street. Leave a Comment

 Token by bijo69
The single fare is 190 SIT if you use a token or 300 SIT if you pay cash (correct change only). You can buy these tokens at kiosks or at the post office. Leave a Comment

Ljubljana's bus network is pretty well organized. It has 21 lines which cover city very well. But as a tourist I don't think you'll be using it much as most of tourist atractivites are within walking distance.
Nevertheless, single ride costs 190 tolars if you buy a token in any kiosk, or 300 sit if you pay to the driver (be sure to have exact amount, as they don't give back change).
You can also buy daily ticket (900 sit) or weekly ticket (3400 sit).
There are few downsider of Ljubljanas public transport. You can get stuck in traffic jam. It can be very unpleasant in summer, in a overcrowded bus with no air-con (older ones).
Another problem is that buses don't run during the night. Most of the lines have lust ride at 23h and start at 5h in the mornin. Leave a Comment Theme: Bus

I didn't travelled much by bus in Ljubljana. The main sights there are not far from the old core. I think Ljubljana is well served by buses.
Once you enter the bus you have to put the exact fare into a box in front of the driver. You are not given any ticket. You can also pay with the so called "zetoni". These are small coins sold at most newspapers kiosks or at the post offices. If you pay your fare with zetoni. you can save quite a lot of money. Leave a Comment Theme: Bus

 Ljubljana bus terminal by Airpunk
I think that buses are a comfortable way to travel around Slovenia as the train network is not very dense and the train is most times more expensive. Anyway, for some routes between the larger cities, expecially Ljubljana - Maribor, it is worth to check out the train too. The bus terminal is located in front of the train station.

Ljubljana Brnik Airport: Located about 30 km north of the Slovenian capital, Brnik is the country's only international gateway. Surrounded by forest and with the nearby Karavanke Alps in full view, take-off and landing can be an extraordinary experience.
Getting there: By bus: There is regular public service from the main bus/train station hourly, Mon-Fri at 10 minutes past the hour, except for the first bus, which departs at 5:20. Last bus is at 20:10. Abbreviated service Sat/Sun/holidays. One way for about 900 SIT (3.75 euro), 45 minute journey. From the airport: On the hour beginning at 5:00, with last bus departing at 20:00. There is also another bus with less frequent service that corresponds with EasyJet flights. One way 5 euro.
For complete regularly updated bus schedules, look here:

There is an airport transfer shuttle service which for just 8 euro, will pick you up anywhere in greater Ljubljana, and deliver you to the airport. Call +386-(0)41-362-079 the day before to reserve. If you're in a rush, a taxi will run about 7000 SIT (30 euro).
Note I: There is no public email/internet terminal, but wireless access is available, for a fee of course.
Note II: There's a restaurant and cafe in the general area of the terminal, and another one outside. Not terribly overpriced. A couple newsstands, gift shops and a post office as well. There are smoking areas inside the airport.
Note III: There is another cafe past security, along with a pair of gift shops, one a larger duty-free, and a smoking lounge. The duty-free has a surprisingly good selection of local wines at surprisingly reasonable prices.
For a small airport, Brnik can be busy at certain times of the day. While the two-hour prior to flight time arrival to the airport isn't absolutely necessary, be prepared for a brief wait at security at certain times.

Bus drivers in Ljubljana usually do want to help when they see a lost tourist. Altough their English is rarly good enough they will try their best.
It will cost you 1 euro if you pay on a bus for one ride, no matter how far you are going. You have to have an exact fare and they will not give you your change back if you don't. You can also get a token for 0,80 at news stands.
Do your math and decide if it's better for you to buy a daily pass for 4 euro, or a weekly pass for 15 euro.

If you stay longer than a month in Ljubljana and are going to travel frequently it is best to get a monthly card and if you are a student registered in Ljubljana (ex. Erasmus) then you get it cheaper. If you are just there for a visit buy zetons in the newspaper stands. They are generally a whole lot cheaper than buying a trip in the bus. I will not describe prices due to the Euro coming up and the constant changes and raises. But one payment last one trip. Leave a Comment Theme: Bus
