Baltimore, MD, May 29, 2024 – Just in time for the peak summer travel season, Condor Airlines' new A330neo, sporting Condor's eye-catching, striped branding, arrives at Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI). Condor will offer non-stop flights to its Frankfurt hub three times a week (Monday, Wednesday, Saturday), with easy connections to 100+ destinations throughout Europe and beyond.
