Antigua and Barbuda celebrates the return of Condor service for peak winter season
To
mark the occasion, the Condor flight was welcomed with a ceremonial water
cannon salute, followed by disembarking passengers receiving a warm and
hospitable greeting from the people of Antigua and Barbuda.
The
seasonal service from Frankfurt will run from November 5, 2024, through May 6,
2025, just in time for the winter tourism season.
Antigua
and Barbuda Minister of Tourism, Civil Aviation, Transportation and Investment,
The Honourable Charles Fernandez, expressed excitement about the re-start of
the service. “We are thrilled to welcome Condor back for the winter season. The
German-speaking market is our second most important European market, and this
direct service opens valuable access to Antigua and Barbuda for central
European travellers.”
“With
the resumption of the connection between Frankfurt and Antigua and Barbuda we
offer our guests another great option to enjoy their holiday in this beautiful
country. We are delighted to continue our strong partnership with Antigua and
Barbuda. The new A330-900neo with the new Business Class is the perfect product
for this wonderful destination”, said Oliver Feess, Condor’s Senior Manager
Network Planning.
The
newly introduced Airbus A330-900, known for its comfort and advanced features,
has a capacity of 310 seats, including 30 business class seats and 64 premium
economy seats, tailored to meet the preferences of Antigua and Barbuda’s
upscale market.
With
a total of 27 rotations tagged with Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, the new

industry.
