Luxembourg Airport is offering free COVID-19 testing to all arrivals. The pilot project is aimed at testing passengers on flights landing at Luxembourg airport and is being undertaken as part of the resumption of passenger activities at the airport and in the context of the national screening strategy.
Luxembourg Airport has reopened to regularly scheduled passenger flights on Friday, May 29, 2020.
The testing is part of a pilot project that is initially expected to be valid for a month.
All passengers arriving in Luxembourg by air will receive a voucher valid for seven days to be tested at a medical lab of their choice.
Alternatively, there will be a COVID-19 testing center set up in the airport, for those who want a test right away.
Test results will be received electronically, and in the event of a positive result, the standard self-quarantining policy will apply.
Up until now, Luxembourg has only been open to select European visitors, returning residents, etc. The country is expected to open up to non-European visitors as of June 15.
Luxembourg Airport is the first major airport to offer the choice of free testing at the airport, or free testing at a testing location in the country.
In early May Vienna Airport introduced COVID-19 testing, but at the steep cost of 190EUR.
