In June 2022, SmartLynx Airlines entered the long-haul market and started operations for Condor Flugdienst GmbH with an Airbus A330.
For the winter season, another aircraft of the type has been added with services starting in December. The basis is a wet-lease agreement concluded with the German holiday airline. The current flight schedule from Frankfurt includes, at peak times, up to four-weekly connections to New York (JFK), two-weekly connections to Toronto (YYZ), and five-weekly connections to Punta Cana (PUJ) in the Dominican Republic.
The two Airbus A330s have Business and Economy Class seats, are between eight and nine years old and fly in Condor colours. Passengers are looked after by a German-speaking Condor cabin crew and an English-speaking SmartLynx crew. All meals on board are provided by Condor.
The cooperation between Condor and SmartLynx has been in place since 2018 and its continuation is part of SmartLynx’s growth strategy to gain a foothold in the German long-haul dynamic business market.
