How to Raise a Lufthansa Refund Request?

• One might use this link if the cancellation portal didn't give the option to do so.

Alternatively, if one had already canceled their flight or canceled the flight, then a refund request form available at the bottom of the Lufthansa homepage can be filled out and submitted to a Lufthansa refund team to begin the refund procedure.
