+1 I was stranded in Frankfurt due to pilot strike. Had business class ticket, no insurance. To say that Lufthansa took care of me with hotel, food and more importantly getting me to my destination with a tight deadline, would be an understatement. They even had a special section away from the crowded area to handle first and business class passengers. No wait at all.
