Condor selects state-of-the-art JFK Terminal 6 for operations in 2026
Condor joins a growing list of award-winning, international carriers who
have chosen to make the new T6 their future home at JFK, including Air
Canada, Aer Lingus, ANA, Austrian Airlines, Brussels Airlines, Cathay
Pacific, JetBlue, Lufthansa, Norse Atlantic Airways and SWISS.
Terminal 6 is a key component of the Port Authority of New York and New
Jersey's $19 billion transformation of John F. Kennedy International
Airport into a world-class gateway, with two new terminals, two expanded and
modernized terminals, a new ground transportation center, and an entirely new,
simplified roadway network.
Condor, which has been serving the JFK market since 2014, currently
operates year-round service from JFK Terminal 7 to Frankfurt, Germany using
its state-of-the-art, Airbus A330neo aircraft in a three-cabin configuration.
Known as the quietest cabin in the sky – these fuel-efficient aircraft
feature Condor's impressive business class cabin and premium economy alongside
exclusive comforts and experiences for all passengers onboard.
At the airport, travelers can look forward to T6's digital-first,
boutique guest experience, with a less than 5-minute average walk from the TSA
security checkpoint exit to all gates,100,000 square feet of NYC-inspired
shopping, dining, lounges and amenities, curated public art, sustainable
operating features, and a premium guest experience throughout the new terminal.
"Condor has been an excellent partner at T7, and we are thrilled
that they've put their trust in our JMP team once again by joining us in the
new T6," said Steve Thody, CEO, JFK Millennium Partners. "We
look forward to offering Condor passengers our own curated guest experience
when our first gates open in early 2026," Thody added.
"As New York/JFK is one of our most important North American
gateways, we are extremely thrilled to be moving into the new, state-of-the art
T6," said Mikko Turtiainen, director of sales, The Americas, Condor.
"The boutique, curated guest experience of the new terminal is right in
line with Condor's brand DNA. Our eye-catching striped branding is
representative of the diversity of destinations and guests we serve as well as
our crew, and we are all about personalizing the guest experience. Condor
passengers will also enjoy seamless connections to our partner JetBlue's
Terminal 5 operations, located just a short walk from T6 gates."
