Lufthansa's version of the Flat Tire Rule is "Do Not Get Flat Tires".
I think that's why BMW has installed the hated run flat tires on almost all their vehicles. No excuses.

I ran into this problem a couple of years ago UA-SN connecting in Brussels. I had allowed four hours but UA used all of that (and then some). SN was unsympathetic, but allowed me to book a new ticket the next day for basically the cost of the change fee. It turned out OK (even got UA to put me up for the night) but I'm not making that mistake again.

That's what the interline agreement is for. They've already agreed to take bags.
