Getting Around - Luxembourg

Luxembourg International Airport (LUX)

Called Findel and located 6 kilometres northeast of the city centre, Luxembourg Airport (LUX) is currently undergoing expansion and renovation. Some short-haul flights now operate out of Terminal B, and a new Terminal A is being built. It is served by Luxair, the national airline, which flies to many EU countries (including London Heathrow and London City). Other airlines flying to and from it include Air France (Paris), KLM (Amsterdam), Swiss (Zurich), Lufthansa (Frankfurt) and British Airways (London Gatwick).

A No. 16 bus leaves at intervals of 15-20 minutes throughout the day for the City Centre and Railway Station (via Kirchberg) from a platform some 50 paces away from the airport building. Journey time is about 25 minutes and a on-way ticket costs €1.50.

Numerous Taxis are available just outside the airport building. Expect to pay about €15 to €25 for a journey to the railway station or the city centre, depending on time of day and traffic (taxis are metered, though there is an airport surcharge).

Within the city, the bus service is adequate for the average tourist. Buses numbered 1-25 serve the Ville de Luxembourg, with the most useful being the No. 18 (city centre to Kirchberg and Auchan). Almost all buses include the central bus station Hamilius (centre of town) and the train station (Luxembourg Gare) in their routes at some point. Bus tickets are available from the driver. These cost €1.50 for one hour or €5.00 for one day. A €40 month ticket can be purchased at the CFL office at the central bus station or at the train station.
