Refund and compensation Lufthansa Cargo: route Munich to Bremen

If your trip departing from Munich International Airport and arriving at Bremen Airport operated by Lufthansa Cargo was disrupted, you are not alone against the airline.

European legislation strictly frames passenger rights. For a distance of 563 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 Munich International Airport, the European regulation applies in full.

How to know if the flight Lufthansa Cargo Munich - Bremen is eligible?

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

Also note that the distance of 563 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 Bremen.
• 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...).

The impact of a strike on your Lufthansa Cargo compensation

When a social movement disrupts your itinerary to Bremen 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 Munich - Bremen flight.

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

Don't buy your food without first asking Lufthansa Cargo for coupons. If you do, keep your receipts carefully.

Even in extraordinary circumstances, this right to assistance at Munich remains valid. The hotel is due if Lufthansa Cargo offsets your flight by one night.

Steps: how to get your 250 € from Lufthansa Cargo?

It is strongly recommended to keep your Lufthansa Cargo boarding pass and any communication relating to the delay suffered at Munich International Airport airport. These documents will be vital for your case.

If you don't have the time or the desire to engage in long email exchanges, delegating your claim to lawyers is the most effective solution to see your 250 € arrive in your bank account.

How long does it take to get the 250 € 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 Munich - Bremen 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.

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