Luxembourg-Findel International Airport Guide
Luxembourg Airport sits 6 km east of Luxembourg City, making it one of Europe's most centrally located international airports. Opened in 1946, it operates on a single 4,002-metre runway and handles over 5 million passengers annually across two terminals. The airport is jointly home to Luxair, the national flag carrier, and Cargolux, one of the world's largest all-cargo airlines.
Despite its compact size, Luxembourg Airport ranks among the top five European cargo airports by tonnage, processing over 830,000 tonnes of cargo in 2024. Its Freeport facility, opened in 2015, stores high-value goods including art, precious metals, and wine in a customs-free zone. The airport serves more than 100 non-stop destinations across Europe, the Middle East, and beyond.
Luxembourg's central position between Belgium, France, and Germany draws cross-border passengers from the broader Greater Region. Trier is 39 km to the east and Metz around 68 km to the south, giving the airport a catchment area that extends well beyond the country's borders.
