For us at the CFL Group, holidays and travelling are considered important on different levels. On the one hand, we have the obvious, like the journeys on board of our trains which take our customers to their usual destinations such as work, home or friends in their everyday life. On the other hand, we offer long-distance travelling by train, starting in Luxembourg, which goes hand in hand with the request of more sustainable travelling. 

Thanks to its whole range of advantages, such as the reduced carbon footprint or the undeniable added comfort, especially compared to planes, travelling by train is clearly the travelling trend par excellence for the upcoming years. Unlike many other means of transport, the relaxation process that we associate with holidays already begins on board the train and not only at the destination.

In this respect, train travellers are offered something very valuable: time. Time for yourself, time to read, to think, to daydream or to enjoy the passing scenery, alone or with friends and family. Valuable time that you certainly don't want to spend in traffic jams or busy streets.  

The Luxembourg railway network is very well connected to other European railway networks. From Koblenz, for instance, which we serve hourly from Luxembourg, you can travel comfortably on to Cologne, Hamburg or even Austria. By TGV you can also easily reach the most beautiful corners of southern and western France. 

However, holidays and especially school holidays are important periods for us at the CFL with regard to our expansion works. With our plan to remain our customers’ first choice in public transport, we need to provide a rail network which can meet the increasing demand. In order to make quick progress with these works, temporary closures of some sections of the train lines are inevitable. We deliberately plan these closures during school holidays to minimise the impact of our construction and engineering work on the daily commuter traffic.
