I have verified this report first hand, shocking behaviour by LH staff!

I have never heard of something this crazy happening before. Just because people are dressed the same does not mean collective punishment.

Evidently the pax flouted the 'no congregation in aisles' and the mask mandate rule on the flight before... oh dear... ideally they should have identified the unruly pax on the flight and dealt with upon landing.

Banning everyone of the same race/religion over the actions of a few is never going to end well. Even more so when we're talking about Jews trying to leave Germany, how nobody at LH saw the optics of this is shocking.

Identifying the pax is the only proper way to deal with offenders. Hand them a red card and take down their name as most airlines do to rule breakers.

Well, if they had detained them on or just after the flight it would have been a mess too. The community would have raised a stinker there: 'German police arrests/prosecutes pax on NYC flight'

That happened hourly in the US when the mask mandate was active. No big deal.

It will be a big deal either way.

This is obviously very bad. I hope the impacted passengers explore legal action. It will be interesting to see how LH responds to this. I don't really see how they'll be able to explain it.

Unfortunately it will be front and center for apx 1 week then when LH has a fare a few bucks or miles cheaper almost everyone will book their flights with the excuse why should I lose on account of them.
