Northern cross-border corridor

Chauffeur in the communes around Thionville

Northern Moselle lives on Grand Duchy time. Every morning, tens of thousands of cross-border commuters take the A31 to Kirchberg, Cloche d'Or or Luxembourg City. Residents of Yutz, Cattenom, Hettange-Grande, Volmerange-les-Mines or Roussy-le-Village live less than 30 minutes from the border — and often less than 40 minutes from Findel Airport. My VTC Go serves every one of these communes at no zone surcharge, with the same commitment to punctuality and fixed fares as departures from Thionville centre.

Corridor usage

Three major flows across the border

Journey after journey, three clear patterns emerge in the northern Thionville area. Each has its own schedule, constraints and expectations.

01

Airport transfers to Findel

Luxembourg-Findel Airport is the natural gateway out of northern Moselle. From Cattenom, Volmerange, Yutz or Manom, expect 25 to 40 minutes depending on the hour. Early flights (6am-8am), evening returns (6pm-10pm) and Friday evening business returns are the most requested slots. Flight tracking is always included.

Findel: from €95 from the Thionville basin

02

Business transfers to Kirchberg & Cloche d'Or

The Kirchberg plateau is home to the EU institutions, major banking headquarters and audit firms. Cloche d'Or, further south, keeps rising year after year with new office buildings. Our executive and consultant clients choose a private chauffeur to avoid the stress of a saturated A31 in the morning and to use travel time to prepare their day.

Kirchberg: from €70 · Cloche d'Or: from €75

03

Late-night returns from Luxembourg

Fine dining, Philharmonic performances, business dinners or nights out with friends in Luxembourg City — after-midnight returns are common in the northern corridor. We handle these journeys seven days a week with no hourly surcharge, same fixed fare as during the day.

No night, weekend or public holiday surcharge.

Direct border communes

Volmerange, Roussy, Cattenom: the border as a neighbour

Some communes in the northern Thionville area are not just close to Luxembourg — they physically touch it. Volmerange-les-Mines, Roussy-le-Village, Rédange, Escherange, Kanfen, Cattenom: their residents cross the border every day, sometimes several times a day. Children in Grand Duchy schools, spouses working on opposite sides of the border, medical or administrative appointments in Luxembourg City — daily life here is structurally cross-border.

For these communes, a private chauffeur is not an occasional luxury: it is often the most rational solution when the personal car is unavailable, when a meeting runs late, or when a flight requires a 5am departure. Our fares are identical to those applied from Thionville centre — no geographic surprises.
