All flights to and from Edmonton are operated on Boeing 767-300 equipment this summer and feature three classes of service (Economy, Premium and Business).

This is Condor’s fifth gateway in Canada, joining Toronto, Vancouver, Halifax,and Whitehorse.

“We are excited that Edmonton is our newest Canadian gateway and the latest addition to Condor’s growing North American route system,” says Mikko Turtiainen, Director of Sales, The Americas. “It has been a true pleasure to partner with Edmonton International Airport to bring Condor’s service to Alberta. In the past, travellers from this region of Canada would have to make multiple connections to get to their final European destination and often spend more doing so. We are pleased to introduce an affordable and convenient alternative. As Germany’s number one leisure airline, Condor is also looking forward to introducing German vacationers to this most spectacular province of Canada.”

Condor’s Business Class features lie-flat seats, a personal in-seat, premium touch-screen entertainment system, power ports at every seat and premium menus with complimentary non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages. Special menus are available for children as well as vegetarian, vegan and lactose or gluten-free meals. Business Class passengers also have access to priority check-in and lounge access.
