Informing of flight irregularities due to weather conditions

Due to poor weather conditions regional disruptions to the flight schedules of the Lufthansa Group airlines may occur at any time during the winter months.

We ask passengers to check the status of their flight before setting out on their journey.

» Austrian Airlines flight status
» Brussels Airlines flight status
» Eurowings flight status
» Lufthansa flight status
» SWISS flight status
» Air Dolomiti flight status
» Discover Airlines flight status

Provided that the contact details are stored in the booking, travelers affected by flight irregularities will be actively informed of changes via SMS or e-mail.

Important note: In order to enable us to inform your customers in case of irregularities as early as possible by e-mail, please always enter the customer contact details using the “SSR CTC” format in the PNR.

Important notes regarding short-term flight cancellations

In case of short-term flight cancellations within 48 hours (in select cases: up to 5 days) before departure, no (immediate) UN will be set in the PNR in all cases. In this case, you can do the rebooking/reissue without having to request a waiver.
