Partnership
Esch2022 ready for take-off! Esch2022 parée au décollage !
EN Luxair has partnered with Esch2022 and Luxembourgish artist Lynn Cosyn to celebrate the European Capital of Culture in 2022. As an actor committed to promoting Luxembourg, joining forces with Esch2022, which will be the European Capital of culture next year, was only natural for Luxair, who fully embraces the Esch2022 motto “Remix Culture”. This partnership will make the Luxembourgish heritage shine across Europe and much further, through the special Esch2022 livery, for which Lynn Cosyn, a Luxembourg artist with colourful, naive and childish art, has taken care of the makeover. FR Luxair s’est associée à Esch2022 et à l’artiste luxembourgeoise Lynn Cosyn pour célébrer la Capitale européenne de la culture en 2022. En tant qu’acteur engagé dans la promotion du Luxembourg, s’associer à Esch2022, qui sera la Capitale européenne de la culture l’année prochaine, n’était qu’une évidence pour Luxair, qui se retrouve pleinement dans la devise d’Esch2022, « Remix Culture ». Ce partenariat permettra de faire rayonner le patrimoine luxembourgeois dans toute l’Europe et bien plus loin encore, à travers la livrée spéciale Esch2022, dont Lynn Cosyn, artiste luxembourgeoise à l’art coloré, naïf et enfantin, s’est chargée du relooking.
LYNN COSYN Artist “If I had known at the age of 8 – when I flew for the first time, with Luxair – that one day I would see my art on a plane, my entourage would have let me continue dreaming.” « Si j’avais su à l’âge de 8 ans – quand j’ai volé pour la première fois, avec Luxair – qu’un jour j’allais voir mon art sur un avion, mon entourage m’aurait laissé continuer à rêver. »

We asked Yves Germeaux, Head of Aviation Finance at ATOZ, about his views on the key challenges for the aviation industry in the years to come, and how to guide clients in this unprecedented period of uncertainty.
How is the aviation industry doing now? The commercial passenger market is in the process of recovering. This is due to the gradual lift of travel restrictions as well as the improvement of the world economy. Unsurprisingly, business travel is expected to take longer to get back to normal than leisure travel. In our latest 2021 ATOZ Aviation Finance survey where we sollicited 600 fellows from airlines, financiers and service providers, half of the respondents believe they will travel the same in 2022 than before the pandemic, but only a quarter believe the same for business travel.
Do you see any positive effects of the crisis? Each major crisis, not only in aviation but in human history, has led to opportunities because of the changes resulting from it. We now see numerous airline start-ups emerging across the globe. Airlines also begin to focus more on IT and digital investments which will not only reduce costs but also allow them to have a better service offering for their clients. From an aircraft perspective, new technologies are being developed. Thus hydrogen, electric, shark skin technology or new supersonic planes might come out sooner than expected.
Environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria are standards of business operation by which an investor can filter socially responsible investments. How does aviation perform in these criteria? The environmental part of this criteria is obviously a key challenge for the sector, even though - compared to other industries - aviation is a small source of greenhouse gas emissions, being responsible for only 2-3% of global carbon emissions. The long-term commitment of the industry is to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. To achieve this, airlines and other aircraft operators will be subject to a number of measures, of which some are mandatory. Aircraft manufacturers are actively working on new aircraft types, shapes and technologies. However, the most tangible improvement in the short term is certainly the development of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF).
