It is free. Nobody sells a ticket for it and nobody should ask you for one.

It goes to the upper town, not the station: for the Gare centrale take bus 29 from quay 3 or stay on the tram.

The airport's FAQ says lines 16 and 29 both "pass by the Luxembourg Central Train Station". Only the 29 does; the 16 runs through Kirchberg to Hamilius.

Every 15 to 20 minutes by day on weekdays, every 30 in the evening and all weekend; the tram from the same forecourt is every 8.

The 00:07 is the last thing to leave the airport at night, one minute after the last tram. Then nothing until 04:42.

Bus 6 follows the same road from quay 1 to Luxexpo, Kirchberg and Hamilius (22 to 28 minutes, 05:13 to 22:44, Sundays from 09:43) and is equally free; take whichever comes first.
