  • Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Berlin airport.

Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Berlin, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.

The impact of a strike on your Germania compensation

The rule is simple: if Germania's employees go on strike, it is a risk that {the airline|Germania} must manage. Consequently, {your compensation|the 250€} is maintained.
