 Poster: A snowHead
|
I am meant to be flying LHR-MUC this Friday with Lufthansa en route to Snowbombing in Maryhofen next week  however their pilots are on strike and I think (but not certain) that my flight has been cancelled.
Their website indicates my flight ist kaput however I've not received any communication to confirm.
My Bookings link is broken.
Can't get through on the phone. (all lines are busy please try again later...no hold facility)
This is all very un-German. Is anyone else in the same boat? (or plane...whatever)

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

only LH operated flights affected afaik.
Swiss, Austrian etc. still running, but that would only be for connecting flights from FRA-INN or FRA-ZRH.
Oh and Frankfurt airport staff keep going on strike too. And due to German labour/union laws, the guys in other airports can join in with wildcat sympathy strikes with virtually no prior notice.

After more clicking 99% certain that my flight is cancelled feck feck feck 
If I request a refund to my ticket via their email form is my return flight also reimbursed? (not currently cancelled)
Can anyone point me in the direction of an internet forum for airline geeks which might have more answers???

Try a forum called PPRuNe (Professional Pilots Rumour Network), has many many many subfora, you should find what you're after.
Going to mention the dirty word... insurance?

You'll need to Register first of course.

Not much on PPrune - other than pilots supporting their brethren for maintenance of T&Cs.
BA certainly making a killing - just looked at LHR to MUC  - and a significant afterglow into next week as well for them. Trebles all round at T5!

Montana, thanks. I've requested a refund and have rebooked onto LGW-SZG which is actually more convenient for me so panic over. Just hoping ze Germans reimburse in full for both legs.
