LH Group Winter 2021/22 Schedule Update
With the EU-US situation showing no signs of improvement, any idea when we can expect the cull to start for the winter timetable?

Its the usual wait and see dance: first the EU and US have provide clarity if you lose your slots, then the booking situation is reviewed and the available fleet is matched. Going by previous rounds I would not expect any cull before mid/end September.

W21/22 is filed like it was W19/20 and nothing ever happened 
So the slash will be significant. Winter is always leaner than summer...

Schedule Change rules
My international connection flight in FRA got moved by 90 minutes forward so I called LH and asked if they could move the first flight forward an hour(there are two flights within an hour of each other) and they said "No, unless you want to pay the fare difference of $245. So, even though they made the connection longer they would not move us. Is this a normal practice or should I try to call again? I normally wouldn't care but the first flight from CDG to FRA is 7:45 and they have an 8:45 , my connection is 12:25 pm to USA.

Lufthansa flight booked, but the route hasn't been flown in 1 year
I have a flight upcoming, LH 758. I looked on flight aware etc, and it hasn't flown in 1 year.
Why are they selling me a ticket if they aren't flying the route?
I really need to go on this flight. It will be very disappointing if it's canceled last minute.
