How to know if the flight Lufthansa Cargo Frankfurt - Baku is eligible?
To determine if your trip between Frankfurt and Baku entitles you to compensation, the main criterion is the delay at arrival (and not at departure). It must be more than 3 hours.

Don't be surprised if you don't hear back within fifteen days of your request. The average time observed for a company like Lufthansa Cargo to validate a complex file often varies between four and twelve weeks.
