I started my travel on 8th October, 2008 from Delhi with flight no. LH-761 to Frankfurt which started late by 20 minutes. I have to transit at Frankfurt Airport for Buenos Aires to flight no. LH 510. The LH 510 was to start at 1020 hrs on 8th October, but it started with long delay of approx. 2.30 hrs as just before its start, the emergency slides open. Thereafter, i was to start from Buenos Aires on 17th October 2008 at 2155 hrs with flight no. LH511. Again this flight started late about 3.00 hrs and took off at about 0100 hrs due to some technical fault.

The Transfer Centre decline my requests to provide me a hotel regarding my waiting in Frankfurt for more than 13 hrs, Provide me a safe and convenience place to wait, steps to extend my transit visa under such extraneous circumstances. I was provided a meal voucher for Euro 10 only, which highly insufficient for meals at least. On my inquiry regarding Voucher for Breakfast and claim of Compensation procedure due to delay and waiting for 13 hrs at the airport, i was asked to contact the transfer desk in the morning. I was made to keep on sitting on a chair for 13 hrs in cold climate. In the morning i was asked to wait till presence of the concerned lady staff who asked me come in morning. till 0915 hrs on 19th, she did not turned up.
