Poster: A snowHead
|
I see lots of posts saying that fuel is cheap in Luxembourg but can anyone recommend an easy place to stop are all fuel stations equally cheap? I'm off to Austria this weekend.

They are all cheap...even the motorway services.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

If you go to one with a shop it may well sell alcohol which is also hilariously cheap in Luxembourg.

I used to use the service stations on the motorways but they often have long queues and, unsurprisingly, are not the cheapest places (though cheap by by comparison with other places outside of Luxembourg). I now use one of the petrol stations at Schengen. These are directly opposite the exit and are really easy to find. The exit from the A13 is just before the bridge over the Moselle river (which is the border between Luxembourg and Germany) and just after you come out of a tunnel. There is a choice of 3 different petrol stations and a large supermarket (cheap tobacco, coffee and sweets, booze is pretty cheap in Germany & France anyway so not so much of that).

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

You'll need to Register first of course.

Second shout for the Schengen turning. I used to come off at Mondorf Les Bains, but that's too far now compared to the Schengen junction

Third shout for Schengen!
There are three at the bottom of the slip, one more on the right going into the village and several more on another road.
Really it's a bit like Martelange on the old road from Namur to Arlon.
NB - I suspect that fuel prices are set by the government - motorway services in Luxembourg charge the same as road side pumps.
When you see a GERMAN fire engine filling up in Schengen it must be a good deal!
Off topic - there's a visitor centre dedicated to the Schengen Accord and anyone travelling with a dog will find doggy heaven on the riverbank.
