The flight was not even overbooked? I was begging the agents to let me on then she said sorry too bad...rebooks me for the next flight...I had to wait 4 hours later to get to BCN...I plan on writing LH because their customer service stunk at FRA...No one wanted to deal with my complaint and told me to go to BCN for my IDB compensation...I get to BCN and of course...they have no record of it happening and tell me to fax it to LH USA...
Did you turn up too late at the gate? Despite the gate beeing "closed" boarding will continue for pax who arrived on time at the gate. If you were late this is not a case of IDB (despite the reason that you arrived too late) Sorry.

They should have dealt with your complaint in FRA; this has clearly nothing to do with BCN.
