so instead of arriving in fra on dec. 28 around 5:50am, we arrived dec. 28 at 8pm.
it's so hard to get any information: what are my rights? do i have any? or because it was weather related i just have to get over it?
thanks!
Get over it. You were delayed 14 hours because of weather, which is out of the airline's control. Many others faced far greater inconveniences/delays. The fact that you were "only" 14 hours late is actually a small miracle. Lufthansa did you a favor by rebooking you on Singapore...they could have bumped you to the next available Lufthansa flight, which might have been days later.
