Luxembourg, a “touristic wealth”

The launch of the new collection--Luxair had already worked with Brasserie Simon and the Luxembourg artist Sumo on special cans in 2020--celebrates the launch of the new “VisitLuxembourg” app. On this free app, created by Luxembourg For Tourism, users will be able to find “bookings, events, information about local transport,” on one single platform, according to a statement.

Including business travelers, who--due to time constraints--often cannot take advantage of our country’s wealth,” said Sebastian Reddeker, CEO of Luxembourg for Tourism, in an official press release.

The colourful cans, distributed on-board, will feature three designs representing Luxembourg’s most picturesque views--the Vianden Castle, the Gëlle Fra and the Pont Adolphe--alongside a description of the sites and an invitation to the application.
