The Schengen-Tourist.LU desk
Editorial, Schengen-Tourist.LU
Schengen-Tourist.LU is written and edited in-house. The Area is a legal arrangement before it is a destination, so the pages are organised around the rules first and the sights second. Countries are added one at a time and only when there is enough specific material to be useful - Luxembourg, France and Liechtenstein so far - rather than a thin page for each of the twenty-nine so the map looks full. Entry rules, visa conditions and the counting of the 90/180 day limit are checked against the European Commission's own guidance and the national authority of the country concerned; timetables and fares against the operator that runs the service. Where the rule and its practice differ, the page says both, because a border that is legally open can still have officers on it. Where something has not been verified, the page says so rather than repeating a claim we cannot stand behind.
Editorial standards
- No paid placements. We do not accept payment for a placement, a ranking or a favourable review. Where a link earns a commission, the page carrying it says so.
- No untested claims. We do not say we have tried something we have not. Prices and plan details supplied by a provider are labelled as indicative rather than presented as our own findings.
- No page for the sake of a keyword. A destination gets a page when there is something specific to say about it. That is why the site is small.
- Corrections are made in public. A factual fix is applied to the page and the update date changes with it.
