2020 was an extraordinary and drastic year for the entire aviation industry: grounded fleets, a very dynamic situation with changing rules and uncertainty about the future all left their mark. Luxembourg Airport was no exception: passenger numbers fell to 2003 levels – a decline of 68 percent compared to the year 2019.
"A motivated team and a solid infrastructure are the best foundations to navigate such a time of change."
"The extraordinary circumstances required adaptation, creativity and commitment by the whole team."
It would seem that 2020 saw only one event: the Corona crisis and its radical impact on our industry. A closer look, however, reveals a much richer picture. The airport, for example, stayed open throughout the lockdown, keeping operations going for cargo traffic, the safeguarding of the medical supply chain and the organisation of medical and repatriation flights. A big thank you to everybody involved, not only at lux-Airport.
