Brexit: did it change regulations for UK passengers with Lufthansa

Regulation 261/2004 was amended after Brexit to the The Air Passenger Rights and Air Travel Organisers’ Licensing (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 has been set in place to uphold your rights as airline passenger when you flight is delayed or cancelled. This legislation protects your rights as an airline passenger and determines when you are entitled to make a claim.

When are my passenger rights protected if my Lufthansa flight has been delayed?

To have your passenger rights protected, your delayed flight must meet the following requirements:

• The flight departed from an EU country
• Or the flight departed from outside the EU to a country within the EU with a European airline
• In addition, the flight arrived at its final destination with a delay of three hours or more

What if Lufthansa can proof extraordinary circumstances?

If the airline can prove there were ‘extraordinary circumstances’ and that they were not responsible for the delay, you are not entitled to compensation. If you are unsure whether you are entitled to compensation, please contact us for free advice.
