Since March 2020, public transport throughout Luxembourg has been free of charge (except for first class), including all journeys to and from the airport. The city centre is easily accessible via the following lines:

Tram (Luxtram): Connects the airport directly with the city centre and the Kirchberg district. It is a fast and convenient option with high frequencies throughout the day.
Line 16 (Eurobus): Travels towards Luxembourg city centre, the main railway station (Gare Centrale), Kirchberg and Bertrange. It operates approximately every 10–15 minutes during the day.
Line 29: Connects the airport with Pulvermühl, the central railway station, Howald and Cloche d'Or.
Line 6: Provides services to Hamilius and Bertrange.

Regional Connections: Line 302 offers cross-border services to Trier (Germany). Please note that while travel within Luxembourg is free, a ticket is required for the section of the journey that crosses the border.

To plan exact routes and check real-time timetables, you can use the official planner at Mobiliteit.lu.

Taxis

The official taxi rank is located directly in front of the passenger terminal exit. Authorised vehicles are clearly identifiable. The journey to the city centre usually takes around 10–15 minutes, depending on traffic conditions.

Booking Note: If you have pre-booked a taxi, the meeting point has recently been moved to Parking C (Kiss & Fly) due to tram extension works.

Transportation Tips to/from the airport

Although there are issues that seem more than obvious, it is always advisable to take them into account when moving to or from the airport, and especially if we go by public transport.

1- To the airport - It is convenient to leave with a little more anticipation than what is commonly suggested. If you choose a taxi or a private car service, always take into account peak traffic times, demonstrations, strikes or events that may delay the journey to the airport from where you are. It is always good to be informed about what is happening.

If you contract a shared transfer service, have a contact telephone number handy in case of any delay by the company. In these cases they usually already have a scheduled collection time.

If you use public transport (collective, train) take into account the schedules (weekends and holidays tend to have less frequency), if you have to change and also how to board (if you need a card or paying the driver or motorist at the moment ). These are details that seem obvious, but it is advisable to know so as not to have surprises and suffer a delay that could cause complications.

If you rent a car to get to the airport, check where to leave the vehicle. At some airports, there is an exclusive parking lot for rental cars.

2 -From the airport- Here it is a little less stressful since you don't have the pressure of missing your flight. In the worst case, you will arrive later at the place where you are going to stay or at the meeting point where you are trying to arrive.

Once you leave the plane, look for your suitcase and finish with the arrival procedures that are required. Then, follow the directions for public transportation or ask the airport staff.

It is very useful to find out in advance the schedules of the buses or trains in case you arrive late at night. Not all work 24 hours. The same goes for taxis. In case of using an Uber-type service, have the mobile application handy to contact the driver.

On the other hand, if you booked a private transport service, it is likely that they will have a person waiting for you, identified with a sign. If you rent a car to go from the airport to your final destination, for greater peace of mind it is advisable to book it in advance. Rental counters are usually available in the arrivals hall.
