00:00Here is a hidden airline rule most travelers never hear about.
00:03Lufthansa has an approved process for skipping part of your ticket,
00:07but it now comes with strict conditions.
00:09The exception applies to tickets that start or end in Germany.
00:12And you need a qualifying reason, like illness, force majeure,
00:16or another circumstance that arose after you booked.
00:19Just buying a cheaper connecting ticket and planning to skip a flight does not qualify.
00:24You must show that you originally meant to fly the whole trip and explain what changed.
00:29The process starts with an English request form on the airline's website, plus evidence.
00:34And you should allow at least three working days before your next flight.
00:38If your ticket does not start or end in Germany, you will need proof of German residence.
00:43Once approved, the airline emails a new ticket number.
00:46If you lack three days, bring your evidence to check in and file right after you travel.
00:51Read the rules before you book.
