Flight compensation Lufthansa Cargo:
Munich — Graz

Procedure: Lufthansa Cargo flight compensation from Munich to Graz

No one likes waiting for hours at the airport. If Lufthansa Cargo did not respect its scheduled times for your Munich - Graz flight, the law is on your side.

Thanks to the European CE 261 text, passengers who are victims of these issues on a trip of 313 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.

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 - Graz is eligible?

The compensation for flight MUC-GRZ is compensation for lost time and not a simple refund of airport taxes.

An unexpected cancellation or a diverted flight from Munich International Airport without an immediate satisfactory solution gives rise to this same indemnity of 250 €.

What are the conditions for Lufthansa Cargo to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Graz.
• 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 Graz 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.

On the other hand, if it is the air traffic controllers, the baggage handlers at Munich International Airport airport, or the security staff who are on strike, it is indeed an extraordinary circumstance. In this precise scenario, the 250 € will not be due.

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

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

The formal notice letter and the collection of evidence of delay at Graz Airport airport (boarding pass, certificate) are mandatory steps to face the airline.

Don't fill out complex forms on the Lufthansa Cargo website. Go through a passenger defense portal to secure your 250 € indemnity.

How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?

On the MUC-GRZ line, delays can vary according to the reactivity of Lufthansa Cargo's legal department.

If your file is particularly solid regarding the incident occurred on the Munich - Graz section, some refund organizations even buy your debt. You then receive your compensation in less than 48 hours!
