    I wish I could give 10 stars. Lufthansa is a terrific airline and should be allowed to operate across the globe. My daughter was traveling to Lufthansa from Dubai to San Francisco via Munich. Flight from Dubai to Munich got delayed by 4 hours due to which our connecting flight was missed.

    We went to the Lufthansa change flight counter at the airport and the new flight, as well as the connecting flight, was booked for the next day which means my wife had to stay in Dubai airport for the next hours.

    Much to our surprise, Lufthansa not only change our flight for free but arranged a stay at Marriot near the airport area, and also provided the airport transfer for free. My wife was granted a complimentary meal voucher for lunch as well as a free dine-in at Marriott.

    After the trip, we have received a travel credit voucher worth 602 USD as compensation for the delayed and canceled flight. Not just that, they have informed that the credit voucher is flexible enough and can be used by the passenger or their spouse up to one year from the date of issue. What a generous Lufthansa rebooking policy and you guys greatly deserve my respect and appreciation. Thank you guys for the hospitality. We always look forward to traveling with you next time and every time. Cheers!

    I think everything published made a lot of sense. However,
    think on this, suppose you typed a catchier post title?
    I ain’t suggesting your information isn’t good, but what if you added
    something that grabbed folk’s attention? I mean Lufthansa Flight Change Policy, +1
    844-673-0381, Fee is a little boring. You could peek at Yahoo’s
    front page and watch how they write article titles to get viewers interested.
    You might try adding a video or a related picture or two to get readers interested about what you’ve
    written. In my opinion, it would bring your blog a little bit
    more interesting.

But hey, if you ever find me on Yahoo’s front page, just know I’ll be the first to add a bit of pizzazz to those titles. Until then, I’ll work on making it as thrilling as possible. Stay tuned!
