Luxair is adding northern England’s powerhouse to its network.

Luxair will fly between Luxembourg and Manchester starting on 1 April 2024.

The airline will have three return flights per week, on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, it said on 30 August. Flying time will be a bit less than two hours.

Luxair is targeting both business and leisure travelers, the carrier stated. “Light tickets” start at €99 roundtrip, its “smart fare” starts at €129 and its “flex fare” starts at €199. Tickets went on sale on its website this week.
