Flight compensation Lufthansa Cargo:
Innsbruck — Frankfurt

Claim and compensation for flight Lufthansa Cargo Innsbruck - Frankfurt

The INN - FRA 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 370 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.

Did you know? Even if Lufthansa Cargo is a non-EU airline, if the flight takes off from Innsbruck Airport, the European regulation applies in full.

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

Don't confuse ticket refund and legal compensation! Even if Lufthansa Cargo offers you a voucher for your Innsbruck - Frankfurt flight, you can still claim the 250 euros cash provided by law.

Also note that the distance of 370 km perfectly justifies the compensation bracket of 250 €. This amount is net and the airline cannot derogate from it in its own terms and conditions.

What are the conditions for Lufthansa Cargo to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Frankfurt.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Innsbruck 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 Frankfurt am Main 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.

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

During these long hours of waiting in the Innsbruck Airport terminal, know that the airline has a legal obligation to take care of you. This includes catering, but also the possibility of making two telephone calls or sending emails for free.

In the case of a flight postponement until the next day, the regulation stipulates that hotel accommodation and transfers from and to Innsbruck Airport airport are entirely the responsibility of the air carrier.

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.

For your 250 €, don't compromise with Lufthansa Cargo without the opinion of a professional who knows the real value of your prejudice at Innsbruck.
