[Mowrer]

Lufthansa's cancellation policy varies depending on the type of fare purchased. All passengers are eligible for a 24-hour risk-free cancellation if the booking was made at least seven days before departure. During this period, you can cancel any ticket without penalty, and the full amount is refunded. After 24 hours, the possibility of a refund depends on your fare class. Economy Basic and Economy Saver fares are typically non-refundable, meaning no refund is given after the 24-hour window, though taxes and fees may be reimbursed. Economy Flex fares, however, are fully refundable without any fee. Premium Economy, Business, and First Class tickets follow similar rules. Basic versions of these fares are usually non-refundable or refundable with a high cancellation fee ranging from around $300 to $750, depending on the class and route. Flex versions of these tickets are usually fully refundable without extra charges. If Lufthansa cancels the flight, passengers are entitled to a full refund, regardless of fare type. If you have already used part of your ticket and want to cancel the remaining segments, Lufthansa may refund the unused portion based on the specific rules tied to your fare. In exceptional cases like illness, visa denial, or death of a traveler or close relative, Lufthansa may allow refunds or waive cancellation fees with proper documentation. Refund requests can be submitted through the Lufthansa website or customer service, and processing times may vary from one to several weeks depending on the payment method and circumstances. Passengers should review fare conditions at the time of booking to understand the specific rules and fees that apply to their ticket. In all cases, Lufthansa advises using their online "My Bookings" section or contacting customer support to manage cancellations.
