Condor expands 2022 summer flight schedule to include Faro and Alicante

Spain's Costa Blanca or Portugal's Algarve -  the choice is yours, Condor tells German holidaymakers! 

The holiday airline, which has for some strange reason chosen to adopt a sideways Star Trek insignia as part of its rebranding exercise, added two new routes for its summer 2022 schedule. 

Starting July 29, Condor will fly from Frankfurt to Faro on Fridays and Saturdays, and from July 31 to Alicante on Wednesdays and Sundays. An Airbus A320 will be used. Flights are available now at www.condor.com and by phone. Travel with Condor can also be booked with all German tour operators and at travel agencies.

Faro is for many holiday-makers starting point for round trips by the Algarve. Especially the coast of the Portuguese region is known for fine sandy beaches and impressive rock formations. But Faro itself is also worth a trip. The city convinces with an authentic old town, the popular beach Praia de Faro and the proximity to the nature park Ria Formosa, with its lagoons, beaches and numerous hiking and sports opportunities.

The Spanish port city of Alicante on the Costa Blanca delights with the lively old town of Barrio de la Santa Cruz, whose narrow streets and colourful houses lead to the medieval castle Castillo de Santa Bárbara. The castle is located on a hill and offers impressive views of the Mediterranean coast. In addition to a vibrant nightlife, vacationers will find some of the country's most beautiful beaches along the White Coast.

Individual Travel Kits for Condor's Premium Economy Class and Business Class

Sleep more comfortably or freshen up: Condor guests in Premium Economy Class and Business Class can now put together their own individual travel kit on long-haul flights with the Refresh Kit and Sleep Kit. In addition, guests in both booking classes will receive a welcome gift waiting for them in their seat on all flights.

The Sleep Kit consists of socks made from 100 percent recycled PET, earplugs in a paper package, and a viscose sleep mask based on bamboo fibers. The Refresh Kit includes toothpaste and a bamboo toothbrush with nylon bristles, lip balm and a hygiene wipe. After the launch, guests are offered a choice of both kits.

"Our guests can decide if the Sleep or Refresh Kit, or a combination of both, meets their personal needs. While one guest may be more likely to choose socks and a sleep mask, another guest may prefer a toothbrush and a hygiene towel," said Yvonne Noack, product manager commercial at Condor. "Choosing according to need reduces the number of unneeded items that would have to be discarded unused. We also recommend that our guests use the contents of the travel kits multiple times."

In Premium Economy Class and Business Class, guests also receive a welcome gift on all flights: a Travel Organizer, which is available in various designs for smart packing for shoes, clothing or cables.
