Extended rebooking options

These might be subject to change on short notice. The latest entry restrictions can be found via the Lufthansa Travel regulation page. Please also check the current flight information page.

In case your flight is cancelled, your ticket remains valid and can be used at a later date.

Rebooking to the same destination within the same travel class is free of charge.
