Condor launches inaugural flight to Sanya

International

Condor has added a new destination in the Asia-Pacific region with the launch of its first flight to Sanya, located on China’s Hainan Island.

Flight DE2362 departed from Frankfurt Airport (FRA) on the evening of Saturday, July 26, 2025, and arrived at Sanya Phoenix International Airport (SYX) on July 27, following a stopover in Bangkok (BKK). The arrival was marked by a traditional welcome ceremony at the airport.

The new route is now served three times per week during the summer schedule, with departures from Frankfurt on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Saturdays. All flights include a brief stop in Bangkok and are operated with the state-of-the-art Airbus A330neo, which offers Business Class, Premium Economy, and Economy Class seating.

“With the launch of the Sanya connection, Condor continues the strategic expansion of its long-haul network in Asia,” said Heiko Holm, Managing Director and CTO of Condor. “Thanks to our strong and trusted partnership with Sanya Phoenix International Airport and the Sanya Tourism Board, we’re offering a compelling new travel option for European tourists while also opening doors for Chinese travelers to explore our European network.”

In March 2025, Condor signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Sanya Tourism Board and Sanya Phoenix International Airport. In addition to launching the new route, the agreement outlines a shared commitment to promoting sustainable tourism and preserving Sanya’s cultural heritage.

Tickets for flights to Sanya are available through travel agencies and at www.condor.com.
