What is the climate of the Benelux countries?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The climate is influenced a lot by the North Sea, which is deep enough to act as a heat sink and smooth out extreme temperatures, while being shallow enough to allow for a few weeks of quite hot weather (30+ degrees Celsius) in the summer and a few weeks of cold (under -5 degrees Celsius) in winter.

Winds from the north and west approach the Netherlands across the North Sea, leading to cooler springs and summers, and milder autumns and winters, all with lots of rain or snow. When the winds turn and blow from the south and east this results in mostly dry weather, with warmer temperatures in spring and summer, and colder autumn and winter.

Since the Gulf Stream is aimed directly at the North Sea the climate is a lot warmer than most other areas at our latitude. In January 2012 for example Great Britain and the Netherlands were the last areas north of the 50N latitude to receive any significant amount of snow.

How would one find the cheapest rate with the hotels in Luxembourg?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Most hotels only advertise a rate that they want to sell rooms at while in fact they will accept lower rates on the day. Sites such as Trivago and Travelsupermarket will provide a range of hotels and the best rates that the internet can find; this isn't exhaustive but a good selection can be put on your screen at the same time. Also phone individual hotels if you know where you want to stay and ask what their cheapest deal would be if you were to fill a room that would otherwise be left empty.

What are the main sources of income in Luxembourg?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Primarily the financial industry. The Luxembourgish government actually actively encourages growth in this industry by providing a favorable tax climate (thus attracting banks), and by introducing favorable laws for investment funds (more laissez-faire, ie by reducing administrative procedures and auditing checks in favor of market mechanisms).

In addition, according to wikipedia (entry:economy of Luxembourg) steel and tourism also account for a major part of the economy. Also, Goodyear/Dunlop has a major production centre in Luxembourg. With over 1000 employees, and given that Luxembourg is a small country, this may possibly also be considered as "important".
