Today, Wednesday 5 July 2017, after nine years of closure, Terminal B at Luxembourg Airport was successfully revived and open to full capacity.

The extension of the airport with the reconstruction of Terminal B was urgently required due to the passenger's increase in the past years. Only 11 months of intensive construction were needed to provide a new and modern equipped additional terminal. During the test phase last week already 20 arrivals and 15 departures were successfully operated together with the partner and home based carrier Luxair.

“Today we officially re‐opened Terminal B, which is another milestone in the history of Luxembourg Airport. Passengers will benefit from the convenient boarding directly at the gates and the comfortable waiting areas. Further, we have adapted everything to the traveller of today, providing power and USB sockets to charge electronic devices, inventing new self‐boarding gates, supplying free and fast WIFI. New shopping and dining possibilities will open in August”, explained Johan Vanneste, CEO of lux‐Airport.

Terminal B will provide 9 additional gates, operating flights in the Schengen Area and therefore increasing the total number of gates from 15 to 24. Hence Terminal B is connected via a 90 m building, equipped with “Travelators” to Terminal A. However for all flights the check‐in, security, baggage claim and arrivals remain in Terminal A.
