Flight compensation Lufthansa Cargo:
Frankfurt — Bangkok

Procedure: Lufthansa Cargo flight compensation from Frankfurt to Bangkok

From Frankfurt am Main International Airport airport, your departure with Lufthansa Cargo to Bangkok didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.

Fortunately, for this specific route with a distance of 8 999 km, EC Regulation 261/2004 requires Lufthansa Cargo to pay you financial compensation.

Why are you entitled to 600 €?

The European Regulation EC 261/2004 is very strict regarding air passenger rights. The amount of fixed compensation does not depend on the price of your ticket, but only on the flight distance.

Remember that this law applies whether you are traveling in economy or business class, and regardless of the passenger's nationality.

How to know if the flight Lufthansa Cargo Frankfurt - Bangkok is eligible?

The compensation for flight FRA-BKK is compensation for lost time and not a simple refund of airport taxes.

The compensation also covers boarding denials (overbooking). If Lufthansa Cargo sold more seats than planned and you stay on the tarmac at Frankfurt am Main International Airport, the 600 € compensation is automatic.

What are the conditions for Lufthansa Cargo to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Bangkok.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Frankfurt airport.
• Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Lufthansa Cargo (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

The impact of a strike on your Lufthansa Cargo compensation

When a social movement disrupts your itinerary to Suvarnabhumi 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.

The nuance is subtle, but essential. By calling on specialized lawyers, they will check the actual flight causative factors in the aeronautical databases reported by the captain on the day of your Frankfurt - Bangkok flight.

What are your rights at Frankfurt airport in case of prolonged wait?

Assistance is due from 2 hours of delay for a flight of this distance. Lufthansa Cargo must ensure the well-being of its passengers stuck at Frankfurt.

Some passengers are unaware that transportation between the hotel and Frankfurt am Main International Airport terminal is also included in the legal package due by Lufthansa Cargo.

Steps: how to get your 600 € from Lufthansa Cargo?

The amicable route with Lufthansa Cargo to recover 600 € often fails without a technical and legal file.

Don't fill out complex forms on the Lufthansa Cargo website. Go through a passenger defense portal to secure your 600 € indemnity.

How long does it take to get the 600 € compensation?

A frequent question concerns processing times. A claim filed directly with Lufthansa Cargo customer service can take several weeks or even months before getting a response.

If your file is particularly solid regarding the incident occurred on the Frankfurt - Bangkok section, some refund organizations even buy your debt. You then receive your compensation in less than 48 hours!

What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?

The first refusal from Lufthansa Cargo should not discourage you. Very often, passenger services invoke 'weather' by default to test the traveler's determination.

DGAC or its European equivalents can be slow. A private court proceeding against Lufthansa Cargo is often more striking.
