Get your Lufthansa Cargo flight compensation for the route Munich - Boston
Have you experienced a major inconvenience during your trip between Munich and Boston with Lufthansa Cargo? A flight delayed by several hours, a last-minute cancellation, or overbooking can ruin your plans.
Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 6 181 km of flight, the company Lufthansa Cargo is subject to a compensation obligation if the delay exceeds 3 hours or if the flight is cancelled.
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.
Details of your right to compensation
- Departure airport: Munich International Airport (MUC)
- Arrival airport: General Edward Lawrence Logan International Airport (BOS)
- Flight distance: 6 181 km (~7h44)
- Applicable compensation: 600 €
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 Munich - Boston is eligible?
For an Lufthansa Cargo flight from Munich to Boston, punctuality is a performance obligation. A delay of 180 minutes triggers the right to financial compensation of 600 €.
An unexpected cancellation or a diverted flight from Munich International Airport without an immediate satisfactory solution gives rise to this same indemnity of 600 €.
What are the conditions for Lufthansa Cargo to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Boston.
-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Munich airport.
-
Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Lufthansa Cargo (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Munich, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your Lufthansa Cargo compensation
A work stoppage of Lufthansa Cargo crews is considered inherent in the normal activity of the carrier and no longer constitutes a valid excuse to refuse the 600 €.
Warning however: if the cancellation is directly attributable to the airport staff or a decision by air navigation, Lufthansa Cargo is released from its obligation to pay the legal indemnity of 600 euros, but not from its duty of assistance.
What are your rights at Munich airport in case of prolonged wait?
The right to assistance is a crucial provision of the European text. Even before speaking of your 600 €, if the delay stretches at Munich International Airport airport, Lufthansa Cargo is required to distribute vouchers to eat and drink.
Some passengers are unaware that transportation between the hotel and Munich 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.

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