Recommendations for flights to Lubjilana from Chicago - Best connecting cities

Looking for recommendations for flight connections to Slovenia next June. Leaving from Chicago. Would like to limit the number of connections. (hopefully only one).

I'd pick Munich on Lufthansa or Zurich on Swiss, although I see the cheapest option is Air Serbia with a change in Belgrade.

The absolutely best connection from Lubjilana to Chichago will be the one you find on Google Flights (or similar) that meets all your needs and expectations. Do book it direct with the airline though.

Oh, and Lubjilana is in Slovenia not Croatia. If you meant Zagreb, then my recommendation would be completely different

Check the Ljubljana airport website to get an idea of what airlines provide service and
from what cities.

Most major European airlines will connect you from their hub cities, so you are looking for
a non-stop from Chicago to those hub cities to give you the one-stop connection. Good
news, you have plenty of options.

For next June, even though flight schedules are up, they will most likely change, so your
connection time (which is the second variable I would be concerned with) cannot be
determined with any great confidence at this point. If you have lounge access, though,
then not as big a deal.

As alluded to, Zagreb is 2 hours away by bus, and buses serve the airport. For a relevant
fare difference, I would have no problems flying into Zagreb.
