How Long Does It Take To Get A Lufthansa Refund?

Did you cancel your Lufthansa flight, and are you concerned about the refund? Do not worry. Lufthansa never keeps your money and provides a refund in 7-20 days. The refund time depends on the original payment mode, like seven days for the credit card and debit card and around 20 days for cash and cheque. The airline makes refunds by fare conditions, and restrictions apply regarding the refundability of the fare you purchased.

As per the fare condition and segment of your ticket used, the Lufthansa refund value of fare, taxes, and fees are calculated and refunded in the original payment methods.
