We welcome any comments you have about your travels with Lufthansa. Your feedback is especially helpful in our ongoing efforts to better meet your needs.
Ticket Refunds
Tickets purchased at a travel agency
If you purchased an electronic ticket or a paper ticket from a travel agency (including online agencies), please contact your travel agent directly. Your travel agent is the responsible party to review and process any refund due.
Tickets purchased directly from Lufthansa
All refunds due will be issued to the original form of payment in accordance with the conditions of the fare type purchased. Please note that some tickets are wholly non-refundable, or require a service fee, which will be deducted from the refund amount.
If the ticket was purchased from Lufthansa directly and could not be used due to illness or death of the traveler, traveling companion, or immediate family member, please submit your request with the respective documentation to:
Lufthansa German Airlines
Attention: Ticketing Refunds
1400 RXR Plaza, West Tower

Please note that any refund in the above cases is dependent upon the fare type purchased.
