@lufthansa @gimbakakanda You are just being racist and unprofessional.. so be it.

Why I Won’t Be Flying @lufthansa Again—A Nightmare Experience Yesterday, October 3, I was a passenger on Lufthansa flight LH0401 from JFK Airport in New York to Frankfurt Airport, with a connecting flight to Abuja. After disembarking in Frankfurt for a five-hour layover, I quickly realised that I had left my wallet in the cabin. The wallet contained all the cash I had, my debit cards, identification cards, sensitive personal and official documents, and other valuable items. Upon discovering this, barely a minute after leaving the plane, I immediately rushed to the Lufthansa staff at the terminal exit to report that I had left my wallet, emphasising the critical nature of the items inside. However, despite my explanation and the urgency of the situation, I was denied the opportunity to return to the aircraft to retrieve my belongings or have the wallet retrieved. This refusal was particularly painful, given the manifest sensitivity and value of the wallet’s contents. I followed all the proper procedures as instructed by the airline, filling out the “lost” item form, even though I knew my wallet wasn’t lost, and even reporting the matter to the police at Frankfurt Airport. I patiently waited, hoping for a positive outcome. Two German policewomen accompanied me to the Lost and Found Office, a restricted area (and they also mentioned I would only be allowed there once), where the attendant informed me that there was nothing she could do and that they would only act once the airline submitted the item—the same airline that had responded to my pleas like inefficient robots. Stripped of that wallet, I had no access to any of my bank cards or funds. If anything had disrupted my schedule—God forbid—I would have essentially become a charity case far from home, as I couldn’t even afford a one-euro snack or a bottle of water during the layover. It was a nightmare. My distress deepened when customer service representatives at both Gates B and Z, after hearing my desperate plea, callously told me that if the wallet was so important, I shouldn’t have forgotten it in my seat. For a moment, I was speechless. Such a response was not only unprofessional but also downright insensitive to a passenger who had just endured nearly nine hours of flying. I had expected better from an airline that claims to set service standards. To further compound the situation, other customer service staff told me I shouldn’t expect much from the search efforts, as the cleaning crew who attended to their planes are often thieves and unlikely to return valuable items. I was stunned and appalled by this statement. If Lufthansa was aware of this culture of theft within their airline, why wasn’t the official who stopped me from returning to retrieve my wallet more proactive in protecting my possessions or retrieving them for me? They provided no answer. The plane was still in my sight when I attempted to retrieve my wallet! The only sensible comment from their customer service came from a staff member who, after hearing what had happened, said the smartest thing would have been to retrieve the wallet immediately. He explained that the usual practice was for a member of the airline staff to accompany passengers for such retrievals, and that he had done this for several passengers before. He added that if we had met earlier, he would have done the same for me, but it was too late because the plane was already being cleaned. This lone voice of reason, a fellow Black man and the only Black staff member I encountered, was probably sympathetic because he humanised me and mentioned that he had experienced a similar misfortune during one of his own travels. Had I been travelling to a foreign country, I would have been completely stranded. This entire experience with Lufthansa’s customer service was the worst I have ever encountered. The height of unprofessionalism and disrespect was shocking, especially from an airline with such a prestigious reputation. 1/2

Talked to four people at @lufthansa to let them know my connection in Zurich is not possible due to predictable flight delays. Won't rebook me until AFTER I miss my connection, which happens to be the only flight home. Any bets on how things will play out?

Holy fuck debit card fraud of nearly $600 hit me out of nowhere. Bank “researching claim”. I sure could have used those Memorrhage LP artist copies to mitigate esp right after the 1st. Fuck scammers

@Lufthansa_USA my checked bag wasn’t loaded onto my flight yesterday due to an aircraft change, I have filed the claim it says they located my bag, however the description I put was a hard rigid bag & they have it listed as a soft bag, how do I ensure they found the correct bag?
