Luxair celebrates record profits: fleet renewal and passenger growth!

Luxemburg, Luxemburg - The Luxembourg Luxair airline made remarkable progress last year. With 2.6 million passengers transported, the company recorded an increase of 6.5 percent compared to the previous year. The increase in leisure trips, which was 13 percent above expectations, was particularly gratifying. This positive development is also reflected in the Luxair Tours area, where growth of five percent is recorded by travelers. The variety of trips offered comprises over 90 travel destinations, including popular destinations such as Spain, Italy and Portugal, which further increases the attractiveness of the airline.

Luxair has also achieved a increase in sales from nine percent to 801 million euros in all business areas, with the exception of the freight. The company has recorded the highest operating profit of the past two decades with a pleasant 10.5 million euros. In order to master future challenges, Luxair is planning a comprehensive fleet renewal, which is associated with an investment of one billion euros by 2030. This measure is intended to improve the processes and further expand the passenger network.

fleet renewal and challenges

The fleet renewal is not without challenges. Trade disputes between the EU and the USA as well as regulatory stress make up the process. Nevertheless, Luxair has already ordered 16 quieter and low-fabric-fabric of EMBRAER E195-E2 aircraft from the manufacturers Embraer and Boeing. The training courses for the personnel to operate these new machines have already started.

In order to meet the high requirements, a new hangar was inaugurated for faster maintenance in 2024. Luxair also plans to use sustainable fuel (SAF) to integrate ecological aspects into the fleet strategy. For the coming year, the group expects a financial dry spell and is still planning a fleet change to maintain competitiveness.

flight offer and catering services

The Luxair route network was expanded to expand Manchester in England and Brac in Croatia, which increases the number of flights to 31,000, even if this means 900 flights less than in the previous year. However, the higher utilization shows that the demand for flights has increased significantly. In addition, the number of catering meals rose by seven percent to around three million, which underlines Luxair's commitment to high service quality.

These comprehensive developments and initiatives are optimistic that Luxair is well positioned in order to counter the challenges of the aviation industry and to offer its customers a first -class service in the future. Further information can be found in the reports from Volksfreund and Luxair .
