Condor renews fleet with Airbus A320neo family
Toulouse, 25 July 2022 – German Airline Condor
Flugdienst GmbH has selected the A320neo Family to modernize its
Single-Aisle-fleet. The agreement will cover 41 aircraft, via lease and via
direct purchase. The aircraft will be powered by Pratt & Whitney engines.
“Following Condor’s
earlier decision to order the A330neo for its long-haul network, we are double
grateful the airline has now also selected the Airbus A320neo Family to
modernise its single-aisle-fleet following a thorough evaluation process. We
are proud of such a strong vote of confidence and welcome Condor as a future
all-Airbus operator,” says Christian Scherer, Chief Commercial Officer and Head
of Airbus International.
"After we will have
replaced our entire long-haul fleet with state-of-the-art 2-liter aircraft by the
beginning of 2024, it is the logical next step for us to modernize our short-
and medium-haul fleet as well. With our new A320neo and A321neo aircraft, we
are consistently developing our fleet and ourselves as a company, and also
taking care of our own aspiration to enable responsible and at the same time
comfortable travel with significantly reduced CO2 emissions, significantly
lower fuel consumption and less noise," says Ralf Teckentrup, CEO of
Condor.
By operating the A320neo
and A330neo aircraft side by side, Condor will benefit from the commonality
economics these two aircraft Families offer. Condor has been operating the A320
for more than 20 years on its network in Europe. The new A320neo fleet will
feature the Airbus Airspace Cabin, offering passengers the highest level of
comfort.
