Luminar (Kodak Aerocolor Iv) really is a lovely film.
It's a shame Kodak themselves never sold it in individual rolls, but I guess that was because they were marking up their current offerings as high as they could.
I've shot two rolls with it over the past year but wasn't happy with the lab scans as the colors were very unnatural on most shots, but it turns out that's common due to the lack of orange mask. I now have my own scanner so will rescan the negatives to see if they come out better; I was able to color-correct the JPEG scans from my lab but it would be better to rescan.
I had no issues, but that is because I scan the film myself, and set the WB for each unique film type (saving it as a preset). I do that by using the WB dropper in a piece of the unexposed film.
It sounds like your lab did not accommodate for this film and just used a generic setting that they use for Kodak/Fuji etc.
