From Wikipedia
Luxembourg Airport (IATA: LUX, ICAO: ELLX) serves as the principal airport of Luxembourg and the sole international airport within the country. Formerly known as Luxembourg Findel Airport (French: Aéroport de Luxembourg-Findel) due to its location in the Findel area, it remains the only airport in Luxembourg equipped with a paved runway. The airport is approximately 3.25 nautical miles (6.02 km; 3.74 mi) to the east of Luxembourg City.
In 2024, Luxembourg Airport accommodated over five million passengers. Additionally, it is recognized as a major cargo hub, ranking as the fifth-busiest airport in Europe by cargo tonnage and ranking the 28th-busiest globally in 2010. Both Luxair, the national flag carrier, and Cargolux, a leading cargo airline, maintain their headquarters on the airport premises.
The airport handles around 100,000 aircraft movements per year on a single runway, which is relatively high for an airport with this infrastructure.
