ARRIVAL BY PLANE

Given the size of the country of Luxembourg, there is only one airport. The international airport Luxembourg is situated only 6 km from the city centre and it is linked to the main European cities by many direct flights a day. Furthermore, Luxembourg-city is within short distance to other major airports in the neighbouring countries, which are connected by bus and train.

ARRIVAL BY TRAIN

Luxembourg is well connected to other European countries by a multitude of international railway options. The capital city is linked to the TGV (SNCF) (FRA), the ICE network (DEU) and the SNCB network (BEL). All train tickets can be purchased online. Please note that trains are free of charge within Luxembourg and paid tickets are priced until reaching the national border.

The central train station of Luxembourg is in 20 minutes walking distance from the city centre. Another option is to take the Tram (stops at the main entrance) to the City Centre and the area of Kirchberg (direct line).

Main connections are:

France:

Paris-Luxembourg via TGV
Strasbourg-Luxembourg
Metz-Luxembourg

Germany:

Trier-Luxembourg
Cologne-Luxembourg
Koblenz-Luxembourg

Belgium:

Brussels-Luxembourg
Liège-Luxembourg

Switzerland:

Basel-Luxembourg

Please be aware that tickets for TGV and ICE must be booked in advance, as there is no free seating. In many cases these train tickets are personal and can only be exchanged under certain conditions. It is advised to carefully read the purchase policy. Optionally, some tickets can be purchased directly in the train. These are at least 10% more expensive and the risk remains that the train cannot take you on its journey due to limited capacity – in that case you will be asked to get off at the next station. Therefore, buying tickets inside the train is not recommended.

Besides the main connection options, there is another train station in France for TGV: Gare Lorraine TGV. This station is about 90 km from Luxembourg (2hrs by public transport). Every day, the Lorraine Express buses connect per direct line the TGV station with Luxembourg central station. Seats must be booked in advance. Please check the website of the Société nationale des chemins de fer luxembourgeois (CFL) for further information.

Upon arrival at the International Airport Luxembourg it is possible to use the ATM located in terminal A, besides the Press & Books store.
