In 2005, Luxair Airline registered a loss of 12 million euros. To avoid further losses up to 21 million euros in 2008, the company has decided to restructure: 210 jobs will be lost up to 2008. To allow Luxair to regain financial health, the job reductions will be accompanied with a wage freeze and a reduction of the fleet.
