Get your Lufthansa Cargo flight compensation for the route Laage - Munich
From Rostock-Laage Airport airport, your departure with Lufthansa Cargo to Munich didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.
Thanks to the European CE 261 text, passengers who are victims of these issues on a trip of 620 km have the right to demand flat-rate compensation from the carrier.
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.

- Arrival airport: Munich International Airport (MUC)
- Flight distance: 620 km (~0h47)

Too few travelers claim their due (less than 15% on average). Don't let this compensation fly away: the procedure, although sometimes administratively heavy on the company side, is an absolute right for the consumer.
How to know if the flight Lufthansa Cargo Laage - Munich is eligible?
The compensation for flight RLG-MUC 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 Rostock-Laage Airport, the 250 € compensation is automatic.

-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Laage airport.
-
Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Lufthansa Cargo (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Laage, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your Lufthansa Cargo compensation
If your Lufthansa Cargo flight from Rostock-Laage Airport was cancelled due to an internal union strike, you are eligible for legal repair.

What are your rights at Laage airport in case of prolonged wait?
In addition to financial compensation, the European regulation guarantees what is called a 'right to care.' If your flight is delayed departing from Rostock-Laage Airport, Lufthansa Cargo must provide you with free meals and refreshments in reasonable quantity given the delay.
If your new flight is not scheduled until the next day, the company must also take care of your hotel night near Rostock-Laage Airport and the transfer by taxi or bus between the airport and the place of accommodation.
Steps: how to get your 250 € from Lufthansa Cargo?

To maximize your chances of success, use a collection service. These experts know the case law perfectly and will not be intimidated by the legal department of Lufthansa Cargo.

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.
