Condor seat reviews

We had seats 7 H and K. This afforded us more leg room than regular economy seating on any airline I have ever traveled any where in the world for about the same cost per seat. Previous reviewers have stated that regular Condor economy seat leg room was tight. I would say, more to the point, that it is quite tight. In Premier Economy you are provided with an improved meal, complementary adult beverages with your meal, a flight bag of goodies including socks, mask, ear buds and tooth brush. But the best element was the increased leg room. The main issue on this aircraft is the lack of toilet facilities. There were only 4 accessible as the crew parked a cart in front of the one in the centre of the plane making it unaccessible. Also the service, while timely, was discourteous and cold. For entertainment you had to harken back to the good old days where central monitors displayed communal programming. The two movies were current. Another bonus with premier seating was that the seats reclined almost as much as business class, making for a better sleep.

We had seats 36AB and 37AB on the flight to Bridgetown. Seats 37HK and 38HK on the flight from PUJ to FRA. What else can you expect from the economy seats as not too much legroom? But it was fair. The kids (4 and 6) could sleep on our knees up to 4 hours. Food was tasty, drinks served fine. We were served with one alcoholic welcome drink (as present of the crew) before the dinner. The rest of the alcoholic drinks were charged, non-alcoholic drinks included. Entertainment above the average - movies which we wanted to go into the cinema. Two sound channels (German and English), 10 more music/entertainment options. For some extra charge you may choose your preferred seats in the Economy class as well, so you can avoid bad seating or early check in at the Airport.

Seatmaestro seat info incorrect for seat row 23. Seats 23 DE&G do NOT have extra legroom and are very uncomfortable! Condor customer service is lousy and you cannot check-in on line for many destinations so you have to come to airport early for descent seats.

10.35h in place number K9, and it was very nice...

safe company with direct flights to major holidays destination
better than most of charters and some regular flights
food could be improved and poor video entertainment
avoid row 14 and 16 AC/HK because of blind window and 12 middle seats for same reasons

OUTBOUND CONDOR FLIGHT (DE5302 - 11Feb2011)

We paid extra for Premium Economy seats on a Condor flight. We were assigned places 6H and 6K straight behind the separation barrier. They were so tight we could hardly move, let alone stretching our legs. We checked the ordinary economy seats behind barriers (22H and 22K) and realised that the space available was basically the same we had. In reality even the normal economy seats (provided they are not behind the barrier) are better than the one assigned to us. In conclusion we paid approx. 400€ extra for the worst seats on the plane, a couple of free drinks and a sleepless night.
It's simply not fair and probably illegal (our lawyer is working on it) to make us pay for seats better than the economy ones and deliver seats worse than the normal economy seats, if we do not receive some sort of compensation we will never fly Condor again or, lacking alternatives, we will change destination.


RETURN CONDOR FLIGHT (DE5303 - 26 Feb 2011)

We had seats 7E-7G, quite comfortable. In 6H 6K there was a middle age couple, when we walked in, they were standing in the aisle looking at the seats in disbelief. They where really upset, probably even more than we were, the stewardess tried to calm them down and asked everybody around, looking for someone prepared to swap seats...obviously without success... there are plenty of stupid people around ... but not that stupid!!
