Entry restrictions
Luxembourg has restricted the entry of travelers arriving from outside the EU who are not nationals/residents of EU/Schengen area countries and their family members.
From January 1, UK nationals are no longer classified as EU/EEA nationals and will not be allowed entry to Luxembourg. Essential travel is still permitted.
Third-country nationals who are residents of Australia, Canada, Japan, New Zealand, Rwanda, Singapore, South Korea and Thailand are also authorized to enter Luxembourg. China, Hong Kong and Macao (subject to reciprocity at European Union level) may also enter. Travelers from these countries will need official documents proving their residence in one of these countries (residence permit, residence certificate, work permit, etc.). These documents must be accompanied by a translation into one of the administrative languages of Luxembourg or into English.
Luxembourg has continued the restriction of travelers from certain countries (the US, and others) to the European Union. There are exceptions to this prohibition, however: Citizens or residents of Luxembourg with valid documentation – a Luxembourg passport or a Luxembourg-issued resident card – are able to enter the country. Exceptions also exist for healthcare professionals, border and transport workers, seasonal workers, essential highly qualified workers, diplomats, humanitarian aid workers, military personnel, travelers for imperative and duly justified family reasons, third-country national students attending an institution in Luxembourg, and travelers in transit.
Entry requirements
From January 29, all travelers, regardless of nationality, aged 6 years or over, must present a medical certificate with a negative COVID-19 PCR or viral antigen test result issued within 72 hour before the flight, if necessary accompanied by a translation, in one of the administrative languages of Luxembourg or in English. This applies to all departures to Luxembourg, including those from Member States of the European Union or the Schengen area.
Travelers will be asked to complete a passenger locator form while on the plane.
For essential highly qualified workers, travelers for imperative and duly justified family reasons and third-country national students attending an institution in Luxembourg, an express request for the issue of a specific certificate must be sent to the Passport, Visa and Legalisation Office (BPVL) by email at (service.visas@mae.etat.lu).
Quarantine requirements
Travelers arriving from outside the EU or the Schengen area, will have to undergo an additional test for viral antigen (rapid test) on arrival at Luxembourg airport. This also applies to air transport of persons bound for Luxembourg from a third country who are in transit through an airport of a Member State of the European Union or of the Schengen area. In the event of refusal to undergo a test, the person will remain in quarantine for a period of 14 days. This quarantine may end at any time, as soon as a negative test result is obtained.
There are currently 3,334 active cases of COVID-19 diagnosed in LU and 785 deaths as of Apr 17 2021

Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Cancelled the flight two hours before departure. Weren't apologetic."

Cons: "We were on a cruse which was to leave at 7:00PM and the flight was to arrive at 12:35PM. It arrived at 9:00PM. United in DC told us all the flights to the next port for our boat (Antigua) were full and offered no other assistance. There were 11 of us in the same position. Several folks found a flight late that evening leaving at 8:30AM the next day for Antigua. They did not have our phone number so they couldn't tell us about its availability. 6 of us chartered a flight to Antigua the next day. If United told us about the existence of the 8:30 flight, everything would have been ok. United paid for the 8:30 flight for the 5 folks who took it."
Cons: "There was a delay with the flight. I wish there had been earlier communication about what was going on, i.e. Why it was delayed, how long will the delay be."

Cons: "One of the flight attendants was patronizing."
Pros: "The seats were comfortable and spacious place were awesome :) The snack was very good, the best I had so far while flying. Service was great :)"
Cons: "I didn't like that because I was 4th group to get in the plane, all the space above my seat was full and I had to go put my carry-on quite further down. It didn't cause me any problem because my connection flight had a long layover, but if had not been, I could have been late."
Cons: "Every flight I book with United gets delayed. My flight to my destination initally was delayed by over an hour causing me to miss my connecting flight. They re-booked my flight for the next morning so I missed my first evening of my trip. On the way home my flight was delayed 5 hours, turning my travel day into a 10 hour travel day... I will not be flying with united again."
Cons: "Late, waited for a plane while numerous flights to Ontario and Sacramento came and went. Unacceptable."
Pros: "I was very nervous, but the flight attendant made me feel at ease."
Pros: "On time!"
Cons: "Old plane- lots of noises/raddles. Flight attendant not especially friendly, but that's ok? Wish United went direct from Louisville to Ft Myers. Need to add trip to Frequent Flyer Account"
Pros: "The flights were all on time, we had no problem getting through TSA, despite the fact that the airport tonight open until 4 AM for our 530 departure from Lafayette, Louisiana . United agents were there to get us through quickly at 4:15 AM. Because we were being met in Managua at noon and moving in with families that afternoon, there was a little margin for error."
Cons: "There was nothing not to like."
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Held up at check in because of understaffing. Long TSA line. When we finally got to gate wouldn't let us board. Then agent was extremely rude about putting us on a different flight. Have always flown Delta and am sorry I ever strayed. It will never happen again."
Pros: "service was great"
Cons: "There was no air circulating on the plane the entire flight. The plane was over 90 degrees when we got on. Everyone on the flight asked for the air to be on and we were told it was. No air was coming out of the vents. Horrible flight."
Pros: "Crew was friendly"
Cons: "A lot of turbulence for the 1st hour of flight"
Pros: "Everything else"
Cons: "Crew said they will come to reset the screen and they never did"
Pros: "The piolets and staff were kimd"
Cons: "The airline kept delaying and canceling the flights with little to no notification, resulting in people missing work, connecting flights, and other important situations. there weren't many employees working at the airport to assist the people who were in unfortunate situations involving the flight, including myself. Overall it was a poor experience flying with United airlines, but that won't stop me from future planning."
Pros: "It was a pleasant surprise to find out I had a choice of movies to watch on my iPhone. Be sure to install the United Airlines App so that you can take advantage of this service."
Cons: "We were among the last 10 people to board and with the small plane size we had to gate check bags, but not a big deal."
Pros: "The flight attendants were great!"
Cons: "If you can tell that overhead storage space is going to be full so much as to pass out the green tags to check at the gate, why not just insist upon it? Instead of making me walk all the way to the back of the airplane and then having to walk all the way back to the front with the bag. Not everyone is familiar with all of your procedures without any explanation for them."
