Figure of the day

83% of Luxembourg residents aged 15 and over took at least one leisure trip in 2024

  • According to Eurostat data, 83% of Luxembourg residents aged 15 and over took at least one leisure trip. This places the Grand Duchy among the European leaders, just behind the Netherlands at 84% and level with Finland and Sweden at 83%.
  • This high level of participation confirms a trend already seen in previous years. Luxembourg residents travel frequently and, above all, they travel abroad. Luxembourg has the highest rate of outbound tourism in the European Union, with 83% of residents taking at least one trip outside the country. This is significantly higher than in other member states, where international travel often remains less common.
