Shop Facilities
Since the outset of Cargolux Airlines we have had a full complement of support shops. These are located centrally around the maintenance hangars, which is convenient for the line and hangar support. Shop capability includes dedicated component work and general fleet maintenance support as specialized well-equipped emergency backup for line and hangar operations.
