Understanding baggage rules and prices
Free baggage allowance, additional baggage items, weight, and possible fees depend on your route, departure and destination airport, and the fare you've booked. Condor distinguishes between four types of routes: long-haul, medium-haul, short-haul, and city short-haul flights. Your route is determined by your departure and destination airport.
Before you complete your booking, please check the baggage details to see exactly what baggage regulations apply to your chosen trip.
Understanding Route Types
Baggage regulations always apply in both directions, regardless of where your trip starts.
Examples:
- A flight between Europe and the USA always counts as a long-haul flight, whether you start in Europe or North America.
- A flight between Germany and the Balearic Islands always counts as a short route, whether you start in Germany or Mallorca.
Connecting flights
Note on dimensions and weight: If you change flights during your journey and fly both legs with Condor, the more generous baggage rules for free baggage allowance and weight always apply.
Examples:
- Departure from Europe: If you fly from a departure airport within Germany or within Europe via Frankfurt to a long-haul destination (e.g. to the USA or Mexico), the baggage regulations for the long-haul flight apply on all Condor flights.
- Departure not from Europe: If you are flying from a non-European departure airport via Frankfurt to a short- or medium-haul destination (e.g., to Italy, the Canary Islands, or Morocco), the baggage regulations for the long-haul flight apply to all Condor flights.
Note regarding baggage fees: For connecting flights, baggage fees may be charged separately for each leg of the journey. The fees depend on the route of the respective flight segment with Condor.
To determine the price in advance, simply add up the amounts for:
- the first travel destination (e. g., Frankfurt as a transfer airport),
- the onward journey to the final destination (e. g. New York)
- the return flights
Example:
If you're flying from Palma de Mallorca to New York via Frankfurt, just add up the prices for all sections of the route.
Important note regarding flights with our partners: If you fly a leg of your journey with one of our partner airlines, their baggage rules and fees apply.
