Luxor International Airport (LXR) Information

Introduction

Luxor International Airport serves Egypt’s Nile Valley, an increasingly popular tourist destination. The city of Luxor (also spelled Al Uqsur) is the gateway to the famed Valley of the Kings, featuring a multitude of ancient temples and royal tombs including those of Rameses the Great and Tutankhamen. The airport’s new, fully air-conditioned terminal building, which is open 24 hours a day, was completed in 2005. The terminal was designed to accommodate up to 10 million passengers per year. There are 48 check-in desks and 10 gates. Scheduled flights connect with domestic destinations and key points in Europe, notably the UK, Germany, France, Spain and Italy. Luxor International Airport is situated 6kms east of the city.

Regular bus service is available between the airport and the city, but it is generally very crowded. The best way into Luxor is by taxi; the 15-minute drive into the city centre costs about €10.
