With many low-priced flights to destinations throughout Europe and northern Africa, Luxair is a popular airline, carrying around 1,184,613 passengers in 2005.

Destinations served from the airline's hub in Luxembourg Airport include Nice, Malaga, Marrakech, Copenhagen and Porto, with many flights offering great value airfares.

Catering for both business and leisure travellers, Luxair serves UK airports London Heathrow, London City Airport and Manchester Airport.

Luxair also has major agreements with Lufthansa, Austrian Airlines, Air France and Alitalia allowing it to offer even more great airfares to exciting destinations.

Earlier this year Luxair unveiled a new price structure, with more low cost airfares, the option to choose from a range of booking classes and new price categories for both outbound and return flights.

The new price structure was first introduced to individual direct flights to London, Porto and Rome before being applied to Milan and Berlin.

Luxair also announced that it would increase the availability of cheap airfares on many of its summer flights. If you want the very cheapest airfares that Luxair can offer, be sure to book through Major Travel.

It recently introduced a high-performance in-flight entertainment system for its economy class customers in its new next-generation Boeing aeroplanes. Luxair passengers will be able to choose between eight audio programmes, ranging from pop to classical, as well as video entertainment on overhead screens to relax them during the flight.

Luxair business class customers, meanwhile, have the additional benefit of dedicated check-in counters, four-abreast seat configuration, improved in-flight service and flexible airfares allowing changing or cancellation without fees and no reservation restrictions.

Luxair is the national airline of Luxembourg and was founded in the 1960s, initially operating flights between its Luxembourg Airport base and Paris.

Luxair operates its flights with a fleet comprising of 15 aircraft, including three Boeing 737-700 aeroplanes, two Boeing 737-500 aircraft, eight Embraer ERJ-145s and two Embraer ERJ-135s.

Luxair's new 50-seater Embraer ERJ-145s were ordered in 1998 and delivered between 1998 and 2002. They were bought to replace the company's previous Fokker 50 and EMB-120 Brasilia aircraft on Luxair flights to destinations such as Copenhagen, Frankfurt, Manchester and London and were dubbed 'Eurojets'.

"This name underlines the European character of our company. The arrival of the Eurojet will allow us to expand our route network with departure from Luxembourg Airport that will develop into a hub for regional air traffic in Europe," explained Luxair's CEO, talking about the new aeroplanes.

"In a Europe united by a single currency, the Euro, the Eurojet will provide fast and comfortable links to major European cities."

Luxair's new aircraft will also mean greener flights, with a much lower level of emissions than the levels specified by the International Civil Aviation Organisation.

The airline plays an important part in the economies of Luxembourg and neighbouring regions of Saar, Lorraine and Rhineland-Palatine and had a turnover of €326 million in 2005.
