I received a strange email from Lufthansa.

Such an insurance is required for packages in the EU, and covers against the insolvency of any of the involved parties. That's why you don't get one for a pure airline ticket booking, since that is not a package. And if you book the hotel somewhere else and not through the airline website, it's also not a package booking.
We now know how many airlines filed for bancruptcy since the legislation with a huge loop-hole was enacted, and every time customers are stranded again I wonder why this legislation is not being ammended to include airlines as well.

Did you also go to booking.com through an affiliate link at the end of your air ticket booking on the airline website? Or is the only connection the miles&more number which you provided on booking.com?
