Sometimes it just positioned to Luxembourg, other years it actually operated in service, and also did charters from Europe (most commonly Germany) to Barbados. Laker had German-speaking cabin crew as they had a base in Berlin for operating Mediterranean charters, which were reduced in winter when Caribbean operations peaked.
Call-sign was 'Caribbean 005'
