Condor is set to broaden its flight schedule in summer 2025, adding eight vibrant cities ideal for city breaks. From Frankfurt, Condor will offer one daily flight each to Rome (FCO), Milan (MXP), Prague (PRG), Vienna (VIE), Zurich (ZRH), Berlin (BER), Hamburg (HAM), and Munich (MUC), inviting passengers to explore a rich variety of cultural, culinary, and leisure experiences. Building on the success of long-haul city destinations like New York and Bangkok, Condor is now tapping into the growing trend of “bleisure” travel—combining business and leisure on short-haul routes.
Peter Gerber, CEO of Condor, commented on the new routes: “With the eight new city connections, each of which is included in the summer flight schedule once a day, Condor is expanding its offering to include exciting city destinations where you can have a fantastic time. After all, Condor has long since ceased to be a classic holiday airline: we are consistently developing our flight schedule in line with the needs of our guests.” Gerber also noted that rising operational costs in Germany have prompted Condor to reassign five aircraft to more economically viable locations, including Zurich, Vienna, Prague, Milan, and Rome, where the airline anticipates sustainable growth.
In response to Germany’s increasing regulatory costs, other airlines have also announced similar adjustments, relocating flights and resources to more cost-effective hubs. Condor’s shift will support growing demand for both city routes, such as Frankfurt, and leisure travel, as promoted by local tour operators. From summer 2025, Condor will base additional aircraft in Zurich and Vienna, and for the first time, station aircraft in Prague, Milan and Rome.
By embracing this shift in focus, Condor aims to enhance its position in the European market, offering passengers convenient daily access to Europe’s top cities while optimising operational efficiency in a competitive landscape.
