Effective August 3, 2026, Italian paper identity cards and old-style Greek identity cards without a Machine Readable Zone (MRZ) will no longer be accepted as valid travel documents for international travel.
Italy
For international travel, only the electronic identity card (Carta d'Identità Elettronica – CIE) or a valid passport will be accepted.
Greece
This change applies exclusively to Greek nationals holding old-style identity cards without a Machine Readable Zone (MRZ). For travel within the EU, the EEA, Switzerland, the Schengen Area, and other countries that have previously accepted the Greek identity card as a travel document, travellers must present either the new ID-1 format identity card or a valid passport.
Transitional Arrangement until September 30, 2026
Until 30 September 2026, Greek nationals holding an old-style identity card may continue to travel to and from Germany under a transitional arrangement, provided that the entire travel itinerary is completed within this period. From 1 October 2026, only the new ID-1 format Greek identity card or a valid Greek passport will be accepted for travel to and from Germany.

As of the 2027 summer flight schedule, Condor will relocate to the new Terminal 3 (T3) at Frankfurt Airport. Until and including April 2027, however, all Condor flights will continue to operate from Terminal 1 as usual.
Following the relocation, all Condor arrivals and departures will be handled through the modern Terminal 3.
Guests whose bookings are affected by the terminal change will be informed separately in good time. In addition, the applicable departure or arrival terminal will always be available online in the booking details and in the flight information prior to travel.
Until the relocation, nothing will change for our guests – all Condor flights will continue to depart from and arrive at Terminal 1 at Frankfurt Airport as scheduled.
