Cancellation Rights
Ticket Cancellation According to the Israel Consumer Protection Law
- Use of this transaction cancelation mechanism will be in accordance with the Israel Consumer Protection Law for tickets that were purchased through the Telephone Service Center in Israel or on the Lufthansa website for tickets for transactions covered by the Israeli Consumer Protection Law. Requests for refunds of tickets purchased from travel agents or Lufthansa stores and not through the Telephone Service Center should be addressed to them.
- Refunds for a canceled transaction on the website will be possible only for a flight ticket that was not used at all. If the ticket was partially utilized (flight in one direction), the customer should contact the party from whom the ticket was purchased.
- This is to clarify that the cancelation automatically applies to all passengers on the reservation. Customers interested in canceling the transaction only for a certain number of passengers listed on the same reservation should contact the party from whom the ticket was purchased.
- The cancelation applies to all flights and services in the reservation. Customers who do not agree to this should contact the party from whom the ticket was purchased.
- Any handling fee should be calculated as a part of the transaction and must therefor be refunded (minus the cancellation fee).
- In all other cases, and subject to all laws, the person making the reservation will be charged according to Lufthansa’s cancellation policy, subject to ticket conditions.
- The refund will be made through the credit card that was used for making the transaction, within 14 days, in accordance with all laws.
