Lufthansa flight delayed- what compensation can you expect?

When compensation for a flight is said to be a delayed flight, this does not mean the time of the delayed departure, but rather the late arrival at the destination airport. A machine can thus catch up with the delay during takeoff during flight by, for example, faster airspeed but also taking advantage of favorable winds. Legally in the sense of the EU Passenger Rights Regulation 261-2004 the delayed arrival by opening the door of the aircraft at the airport is used as the time, so an airplane, which is on the runway in the sense of EU Regulation 261-2004 actually not yet landed but is considered landed only when the doors are open and the passengers can leave the machine. Incidentally, in the case of delays the compensation is not a combination of flight distance and duration of the delay, but it is always 3 hours, regardless of the flight distance.

How difficult is it to enforce claims for flight delays?

EU Regulation 261-2004 was originally designed to improve compliance with flight schedules and force airlines to be more disciplined. The related rights of air passengers when waiting at airports due to late flights should also be strengthened. For example, airlines are first obliged to provide drinks and food for the waiting passengers (link).
Also for Lufthansa, the rates for lump-sum compensation for late flights are dependent on the flight distance up to 600 euros and are paid to the damaged passengers. In practice, however, the system suffers from the fact that it is not really easy for passengers to come to this compensation, as the airlines like to save the payout. Right from the start you realize how difficult it is to find a correct address where claims can be asserted. It is the question to clarify who actually was the executive carrier? Today, there are code sharing and wet-lease contracts between airlines, which are often difficult for even specialists to find out. With online forms of airlines on websites, the submitter often does not even get a confirmation and so can not prove a submission, bad at a court hearing. Often, only specialist aviation specialists like EUROFLYREFUND, who know exactly how to get the compensation, can help here.
