Lufthansa Traps Passengers On Plane All Night After Flight Cancels, Airport Closes

Lufthansa flight LH2446 from Munich to Copenhagen was delayed and ultimately cancelled, leaving passengers aboard the Airbus A320neo after the aircraft was parked at a remote stand. With Munich Airport’s midnight curfew in effect, no ground staff or buses were available, forcing travelers to spend the night on the plane without proper amenities. Early‑morning crews finally escorted passengers to the terminal and rebooked them on later flights. The episode has sparked criticism of Lufthansa’s crisis handling at its flagship hub.
