As of today, Wednesday 28 October 2020, voluntary rapid COVID-19 testing (R-Test) is available for all pilots prior to leaving Luxembourg on a rotation. As communicated before, we recommend making use of this possibility as this should help in reducing the risk of being quarantined while on a rotation.

The details regarding the testing have been published by Flight Operations Management. Please note the different days and changed times R-Tests can be done. 

We kindly ask you to consider the following recommendations, in order to protect yourself and avoid the risk of a possible self-isolation or quarantine, in case of a fellow colleague who reports for the same duty than you, would be tested positive:

  • Arrive early enough to conduct the R-Test. The results should be available within 20 minutes of taking the test.
  • Avoid contact with other crew members while waiting for the R-Test and the test result, by at least following the rules for maintaining social distancing (keep face-to-face contact to less than 15 minutes and maintain at least 2 meters distance).
