Can I transfer the Lufthansa ticket to another person?

1. If you booked a Lufthansa vacation package, you can transfer it to another person for a fee. You should contact Lufthansa to inquire about your package's specific fees and conditions.
2. While transferring the entire ticket is impossible, you can make a name change on the ticket before it is issued. 
3. You could rebook the ticket for another date or time if you purchased a flexible ticket fare. It will usually incur a rebooking fee in addition to any fare difference. The person traveling on the rebooked ticket must still be the original passenger.
4. If none of the above options are viable, your only choice is to cancel the ticket and request a full refund. The reimbursement amount will vary depending on the fare conditions of your ticket. The original passenger can then use the refunded amount to purchase a new ticket for the other person.
