Procedure: Lufthansa Cargo flight compensation from Berlin to Tel-aviv
From Berlin-Tegel International Airport airport, your departure with Lufthansa Cargo to Tel-aviv didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.

Why are you entitled to 400 €?

The impact of a strike on your Lufthansa Cargo compensation
When a social movement disrupts your itinerary to Ben Gurion International Airport, the company will often try to clear itself. However, a strike by its own staff is no longer, in the majority of cases, considered an exonerating circumstance.
In all cases, a precise analysis of flight logs will confirm if the weather or traffic conditions were truly exceptional.
