Flight delay

Very poor service as not representative to speak to when you are delay or stranded. It was my first time of flying with them and I am not sure I will be flying with them again.

Don’t waste your time with them

Holy shit why did I wait four fucking hours for a bag in the airport. If you care about your time do not book with this company. Any money you save flying will be lost in time

Online customer service intercation

The whole chat platform is incredibly slow and inefficient. I swiped on to a different tab for a second and it kicked me out of the chat, without warning. The live agent Pearl was not understanding my issue at all and took 20 minutes to even address my issue. That is beyond ridiculous. I had to wait 5-7 minutes for a response each time, and an unhelpful one that is. Incredibly slow. And she copy and pasted "copilot says:_" when it was not answering my question at all. In the slightest. One of the worst customer chat experiences I have had. Didn't realise Lufthansa was such low quality.

Flight delay

Totally closed company, not supportive at all, plus the staff was not understanding. They looked only at the money profit, to minimize their loss and expenses.

Flight delay

As soon as I could not make the connection due to long delay I received an email to reserve a room at an airport hotel at the airline expense. I did everything on my phone. Unfortunately I was not told by anyone that Lufthansa was not going to deliver my luggage but was keeping it for next morning flight. I waited one hour at the carousel for nothing until I saw a Lufthansa employee who was very kind , escorted me to the luggage office and gave me a bag containing amenities. Overall I was almost totally satisfied by Lufthansa handling the delay.
