Get your Lufthansa Cargo flight compensation for the route Munich - Dubai
No one likes waiting for hours at the airport. If Lufthansa Cargo did not respect its scheduled times for your Munich - Dubai flight, the law is on your side.
Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 4 564 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: Dubai International Airport (DXB)
- Flight distance: 4 564 km (~5h42)
- Applicable compensation: 600 €
Remember that this law applies whether you are traveling in economy or business class, and regardless of the passenger's nationality.
How to know if the flight Lufthansa Cargo Munich - Dubai is eligible?
The compensation for flight MUC-DXB is compensation for lost time and not a simple refund of airport taxes.
Keeping your travel documents for the Lufthansa Cargo MUC-DXB flight is crucial to prove that you were present at boarding at Munich.
What are the conditions for Lufthansa Cargo to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Dubai.
-
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
Not all strikes exempt the company from its obligations. If the delay of your Munich - Dubai trip is due to an internal strike within Lufthansa Cargo, the European justice recently ruled that this entitles to compensation.
A strike by weather services at Munich International Airport or European air traffic control is an external cause over which Lufthansa Cargo has no control.
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.
Do not hesitate to request this assistance at the company's counter. If it is refused and you have to advance food or hotel costs at Munich International Airport, keep your receipts carefully to request direct reimbursement.
Steps: how to get your 600 € from Lufthansa Cargo?
The formal notice letter and the collection of evidence of delay at Dubai International Airport airport (boarding pass, certificate) are mandatory steps to face the airline.
Partner LegalTech services have tools to check actual Lufthansa Cargo flight logs and contradict false weather excuses.
How long does it take to get the 600 € compensation?
Some passengers wait more than 6 months for a response from Lufthansa Cargo. An expert can reduce this time by half.
A collective action on the Lufthansa Cargo flight from Munich can also be a way to get your funds faster.
What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
Don't take Lufthansa Cargo's email for granted claiming that the airport was blocked by snow without checking official reports.
If you are certain of your right, you can refer to the Civil Aviation of the country of departure, or better yet, escalate the matter to the lower courts with the help of a specialized partner lawyer.
