Interesting to see Skyways starting up international flights again, other than Sweden-CPH of course.
They used to have flights to e.g. DUB and MAN a few years ago.
It's a pretty nice country and city. The surroundings are just beautiful, quite green and mountainous. Feels a bit like southern Germany but with strong French influences.
Well worth a visit if you ask me.

I've travelled to LUX a couple of times - a few years ago Luxair had a direct flight ARN-LUX but they cancelled that route. Luxair aslo had, just until this year, 2-3 daily flights CPH-LUX but they have cancelled that route as well. Because of Luxair's withdrawal from the Scandinavian market, the route CPH-LUX have become heavliy booked and every time I've travelled from LUX-CPH on the afternoon departure around 5 pm, people have been bumped. Every time!
So I think it's a very smart move of Skyways to open this route. They wont have any problems filling their planes (which by the way will be a SAAB 2000 according to Amadeus).

Didn't know that Luxair had stepped away from that route. Interesting!

This was unfortunately not long-lived. Skyways has decided not to resume the LUX flights after the summer break according to

Strange that there is not enough market for a direct line ARN-LUX...
