Condor Airlines and Barbados Tourism Marketing Inc. (BTMI) are thrilled to announce the return of Condor Airlines, reestablishing a vital link between Frankfurt and Barbados. This exciting development comes as the result of a fruitful collaboration and signals a significant boost for Barbados’ tourism industry.
Shelly Williams, Chairman of the BTMI Board, expressed her satisfaction with the outcome:
Following our successful tour of England, Scotland, and Ireland, where we engaged with key travel partners, including tour operators, travel agents, and airlines, we are confident in Barbados’ strong position in the market and the potential for growth in the upcoming winter season.
Germany has traditionally been a robust market for Barbados within the European bloc. Therefore, the reintroduction of Condor Airlines for the upcoming winter season, spanning 2023-2024, is a significant development. Condor Airlines will operate a convenient twice-weekly direct service between Barbados and Germany, effectively bridging the gap and reaffirming the strong connection between Barbados and Europe.
