Refund and compensation Lufthansa Cargo: route Genoa to Munich
The GOA - MUC route operated by Lufthansa Cargo experienced a disruption? Whether it was a technical or operational issue, you could claim a flat sum.
European legislation strictly frames passenger rights. For a distance of 493 km as is the case here, legal compensation is due if the company is at fault.
Why are you entitled to 250 €?
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.

- Departure airport: Genova / Sestri Cristoforo Colombo Airport (GOA)
- Arrival airport: Munich International Airport (MUC)
- Flight distance: 493 km (~0h37)
- Applicable compensation: 250 €
This is not a commercial gesture from Lufthansa Cargo, but a legal obligation that applies to all flights within the scope of the directive.
How to know if the flight Lufthansa Cargo Genoa - Munich is eligible?
Check your actual arrival time at Munich. If Lufthansa Cargo made you wait more than three hours on the tarmac at Munich International Airport, your claim is legitimate.
