Adria Airways d.d. is the flag carrier airline of Slovenia and its main base and hub is Ljubljana Jože Pučnik Airport. It is a regional member of the Star Alliance. It operates international scheduled services throughout Europe and charter services to destinations in Europe and the Middle East.
The airline was established and started operations in 1961 as a charter company with a Douglas DC-6 under the name Adria Aviopromet (Adria Airways). Later, extra DC-6s were bought from KLM. In 1968, the company changed its name to Inex Adria Aviopromet (later Inex Adria Airways) and introduced its first jet type, the Douglas DC-9. Its name was changed after aligning with Belgrade-based trading group Interexport, but reverted to the title Adria Airways after that association ended in May 1986.
