Poor organization of the delayed baggage service

It is not possible to wait two hours to submit a form for delayed luggage. The only employee present at the baggage service counter was very friendly, but there were 20 people waiting to submit forms for delayed luggage. Is it not possible to increase the number of staff at a counter representing 11 airlines? I find it incredible that something like this could happen at a civilized airport. 27 dec 2025

No reason given

I wrote this email (which seems like an abbreviated version of the whole event) but received an email response saying that it's "no longer possible to submit feedback via this e-mail address" I was up all night Sunday (into Monday) dealing with this. Monday was a work day and also the new day that I was now flying. I was so tired and could barely stay awake and it interupted my overall work day/flow. It was very inconvenient. And not just to me, my family made plans around my arriving the day before and had to shift plans to pick me up for my new arrival time(s). Also traveled with my pet cat. He had to be drugged and prepped twice. And had to cancel his vet appointment in Germany. My new flight was scheduled for Dec 15 at 9:55pm. Basically I would not have made this flight on the 15th had it not be for me staying up till 4am trying to figure out if I'm on a flight or not.

Baggage destroyed and missing item

Upon retrieving my checked luggage at [YOW] Ottawa airport, I discovered that my brand-new suitcase had been severely damaged. The zip was broken, and all my items were just loaded into a plastic bag that was not well secured, leading to missing items such as my brand-new razor and other small gifts for my family. While at the airport I could not identify my luggage that was wrapped in plastic This situation has caused me significant inconvenience and financial loss, as I now need to replace both the damaged luggage and the missing item. I trusted Lufthansa to handle my belongings with care, and I am deeply disappointed by this experience. I kindly request: - Reimbursement for the damaged suitcase (purchase receipt attached if available). - Compensation for the missing item. - A prompt investigation into how this occurred.

Problems at airport

My original booking was withΒ Lufthansa, an EU-based carrier. The journey originated in the EU and was scheduled to travel to India. Due to a delay exceeding 6 hours, I was rerouted via Air Serbia, resulting in an extended itinerary of three flights instead of two. The rerouting was part of a single booking and was arranged byΒ Lufthansa. Upon arrival at the airport, Air Serbia did not have our booking in their system. We were not listed on their passenger manifest, which forced us to return to theΒ LufthansaΒ counter. LufthansaΒ staff had to contact their call center to manually transfer our booking to Air Serbia. We were fortunate that seats were still available, otherwise we would have been stranded. This situation caused additional stress and uncertainty, and further delayed our journey. Recent EU case law and regulatory guidance confirm that EC 261/2004 applies even when a non-EU carrier operates part of the journey, provided the booking was made with an EU airline and the flight originated in the EU. Given these facts, I believe I am entitled to compensation under Article 7 of EC 261/2004, which stipulates up to €600 for long-haul delays exceeding 4 hours, unless extraordinary circumstances apply β€” which, to my knowledge, do not in this case.

No reason given

The Lufthansa flight LH 519 was cancelled at the San JosΓ© (Costa Rica) airport. According to the information provided verbally by the staff, the pilot became ill and there was no available replacement crew to operate the flight. As a direct consequence of this cancellation, we missed our train connections in Germany, which forced us to purchase new train tickets at a significantly higher cost in order to continue our trip. Additionally, when we requested an official written document stating the exact reason for the cancellation, the Lufthansa staff refused to provide it, even though such documentation is necessary to process refunds and compensation claims under Regulation (EC) 261/2004.

Warsaw-Faro

Dears, On the above-mentioned date, I was flying to FAO from WAW via FRA. I was dropped at gate A42 after arriving from WAW (LH5715), by bus, since A/C arrived in a remote stand. Since my transfer time was not huge, even if the LOT flight (LH5715) arrived on time, I run all the way until gate A68 to get my flight to FAO, LH1496. I managed, even though the circumstances, to arrive at gate A68, 16 minutes before departure time of LH1496. As I arrived, the gate agent told me the gate was closed. I asked why, and the answer was β€œdeparture is by bus, from a remote stand, so we close the gate 15 minutes before departure”. I told her I had a connection flight, with codeshare agreement, and that way of proceeding was not correct. She checked if I already had a new booking and I did not. I was told to go to Lufthansa desk to get a new booking. As I arrived to the Lufthansa desk, the purposed booking instead of arriving at FAO at 12h40 was FRA-LIS 1250-1500, and LIS-FAO 2300-2350. All of this when I was on-time, on the gate. I am an aircraft engineer, I was positioning home after 17 days of duty, exhausted, and this situation got me completely upset, stressed, worn and drain. The only thing I wanted was to get home after 17 days flying as flight spanner. It is not normal to close a boarding gate 15 minutes before, knowing there are transfer pax. There was no food, no care by Lufthansa. It is not correct to proceed like this in any form. As you can understand I'm a frequent traveler, I know FRA, and I was aware of the transfer time. This connection was completely possible, I made it on time, and I just got denied boarding without any valid reason. At Lufthansa desk, I was told that the LOT flight was delayed, and I should blame them for losing the connection. I asked the lady to prove it, she told me to check on flightradar.com, that indeed showed an arrival 3 minutes before schedule. This situation was completely avoidable, and I managed to get to FAO by train(!) the same day, at 21h, earlier(!) than the schedule LH proposed me at the desk.

We were rebooked on a Turkish Airlines flight, which apparently was overbooked, and we were not allowed to board. The next available flight was only on November 4th, and we could not stay any longer because my husband’s hypertension treatment had run out. Therefore, we purchased new tickets through a travel agency. We kindly ask you to reimburse the difference between the new tickets and the unused flight segment, Zanzibar–Frankfurt with Lufthansa. Thank you for your understanding. The agency from which we purchased the tickets contacted Lufthansa chat, but it was not possible to obtain an exception for a longer flight. There were many additional expenses, but no one there provided us with any invoices.I am expecting an invoice from the hotel where we stayed in the coming days.

Hannover-Helsinki

No reason given

Hello, I booked my flight to Helsinki via KLM. My original flight from Hannover to Amsterdam and then to Helsinki was cancelled, and it was rebooked to a different route from Hannover to Frankfurt to Riga to Helsinki. However, this rebooked flight was also cancelled. I then received two vouchers - one for Hannover Airport and one for Frankfurt Airport. The Hannover voucher worked perfectly, but the Frankfurt voucher was issued for the cancelled flight and is therefore linked to the wrong boarding pass. I contacted Lufthansa customer service at the Frankfurt airport but they advised me to contact klm because I originally booked via klm and they just rebooked my flight to a Lufthansa flight and that Lufthansa didn’t contribute to the mistake that the voucher was booked on the boarding pass for the cancelled flight instead of the boarding pass for the new flight. Therefore I contacted the KLM hotline as instructed and provided proof that I received the voucher by sending a screenshot of the email. Unfortunately, they were unable to resolve the issue and advised me to contact you for reimbursement.

Successful claim

No reason given

I am writing to express my deep disappointment regarding the treatment my family and I received during our recent journey with Air India. We were travelling to India following the passing of my beloved grandfather on 21/10/2025. My mother and my grandmother (they are the two other passengers named in the ticket) were already extremely distressed due to this loss. The journey was meant to allow us to be with our family in India during this difficult time. However, upon reaching Germany, where our layover took place, my mother collapsed from the stress and emotional shock of my grandfather’s death. However, after some time the paramedics at Germany took well care of my mother and we were ready to go to India. Later to make matters worse, we were informed that our connecting flight had been cancelled. We were told that accommodation would be provided, but no hotel was ever arranged for us. Instead, we were left with no choice but to spend the night at the airport, from 21:15 until 08:00 the following morning, trying to rest on uncomfortable airport seats. Considering the emotional state we were already in, the lack of care and support from Air India made an already heartbreaking situation far worse. It was an incredibly distressing and exhausting experience that no grieving family should have to go through. Additionally, because of the flight cancellation, we missed our pre-booked taxi from Delhi to Punjab, which cost us β‚Ή9,000. This amount was completely lost due to the delay caused by Air India’s cancellation. We strongly feel that Air India should take responsibility for the emotional distress, physical hardship, and financial loss we suffered. At the very least, we request a full reimbursement for the taxi fare and appropriate compensation for the lack of accommodation and support during the layover. I hope Air India will handle this matter with the seriousness and empathy it deserves.

On August 20, the day of our scheduled flight from Vancouver to London, London to Rome, and back to Vancouver, our flight with Lufthansa was cancelled. Because the airline was unable to find a replacement flight for the same day, we had no choice but to drive to Seattle and book last-minute flights from Seattle to London, London to Italy, and Italy back to Seattle at our own expense. While we did receive a full refund from Lufthansa, we had to pay a significantly higher price for the last-minute bookings, and we expect the airline to compensate us for the difference. Despite making several calls to Lufthansa before our trip, we were assured that if anything happened, our flights would be rebooked β€” which did not occur. Lufthansa later opened a claim file with Air Canada on our behalf, but it has now been over 30 days with no response or update. We have contacted Air Canada’s customer relations team multiple times, but no one has been able to provide any information or assistance.

Influence by other flights

Subject: Formal Complaint Regarding Flight Disruption and Its Serious Impact on My Health I am writing to formally raise a complain . The delay and subsequent cancellation of this flight caused severe inconvenience and distress, which unfortunately had a serious impact on my health condition. Due to the extended waiting periods, lack of timely updates, and overall disruption, my pre-existing medical condition worsened considerably. I have since been admitted to hospital and diagnosed with Suspected Cauda Equina Syndrome, a serious spinal condition that requires urgent medical attention. The physical strain and prolonged immobility during this disruption have aggravated my symptoms, leading to further pain, discomfort, and distress. This experience has not only affected me physically but has also caused significant emotional and financial hardship. I strongly believe that the airline should take responsibility for the circumstances surrounding this disruption and the effect it has had on my wellbeing. I kindly request a formal review of my case, including appropriate compensation and reimbursement for any medical or travel-related expenses incurred as a result of this delay. I am prepared to provide medical documentation and hospital records to support my claim if necessary. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I would appreciate a prompt response to discuss the next steps toward a fair resolution. Yours sincerely, Naheed Choudhry

No reason given

Dear Lufthansa Customer Relations Team, I am writing to express my disappointment and request appropriate compensation for the serious inconveniences experienced during our recent journey with Lufthansa from Gothenburg to Johannesburg. Our flight from Gothenburg was significantly delayed, causing us to miss our connecting flight to Johannesburg. As a result, we were provided overnight accommodation at a hotel. Unfortunately, the experience was far from satisfactory. Upon arrival, there was very limited food available, and although we were able to have breakfast the following morning, we spent the entire day at the airport waiting for the 22:05 flight to Johannesburg. We were only provided with a Β£25 meal voucher, which was insufficient to cover meals for the entire day. This meant we had to spend long, exhausting hours at the airport with minimal comfort or nourishment. Sleeping on the chairs while waiting for the flight made the situation even more uncomfortable. Additionally, one of our group members did not receive his baggage for the entire duration of our stay in Swedenβ€”from September 27th until our return on October 10th. His luggage was only recovered upon our arrival back in Johannesburg. This situation forced me to purchase replacement clothing for him, as the missing bag contained his performance attire. This not only caused financial loss but also compromised the purpose of our trip to Sweden. Considering the multiple disruptions, lack of adequate support, and the direct financial and emotional impact of this experience, I kindly request appropriate compensation for the inconvenience, expenses incurred, and the disruption to our professional commitments. I look forward to your prompt response and a fair resolution.

No reason given

Refer uploaded Flight Cancellation Summary document for further detail. We had 3 connecting flights booked between Ljubljana and Sydney. When the first flight (LJU-MUC) was cancelled on the day of our flight, it meant our connections would not be met. We were re-booked on 3 new flights, transiting through Singapore (rather than Bangkok) which meant we lost our accommodation in Bangkok and had to book alternative accommodation in Singapore. We were not given a hotel voucher by airport staff at Singapore because the Lufthansa desk was not operating when we landed (apparently they only operate in the evenings). Two of our group required mobility assistance which made the re-routing particularly challenging with them waiting for extended periods in wheelchairs while we sought alternative flights, accom and managed baggage (incl. a mobility device). I have tried numerous times to submit a claim to Lufthansa's compensation portal but I get repeated error messages. When contacting the airline about the IT issue, they would not provide an alternative solution, so we have been forced to go through a third-party service for assistance with compensation.

This, on top of the jet lag and exhaustion from over 20hrs of flyng, made the next day very difficult.

Strike

your questionnaire was confusing as the flight details and times were comparble to what my itinerary says was air canada operations but your checklist says that was lufthansa. either way, that flight was cancelled due to industrial action. i had to contact air canada myself to get them to rebook me, after not hearing for some time.

Poznan-Brussels

No reason given

I was refused boarding on the first leg of the flight because the second leg had been cancelled. I didn't receive any notification from the airline of this cancellation. The alternative flight offered meant I arrived at 22h in Brussels.

Technical problems

We had a 7.35pm flight on Sept 1st that was operated by united that kept getting delayed for technical issues. We boarded a different plane that was flown in from Washington around 2am but were taken off the flight a few hours later as flight cancelled. This was very hard on my 83 year old mother We eventually got on a flight at 11.30 pm sept 2nd landing in Dublin sept 3rd
