Yooooooo, that’s hot.

It maybe an unpopular opinion, but I like this livery. I think they have had some great liveries over the years. Great shot.

thank you!

I have mixed thoughts about it. Against a clean background it stands out and in a good way.

Against a busy background or one with a lot of lines it gets lost easily.

But...I've gotten dozens of texts from friends wanting to know what the stripey plane they just saw is...

...so clearly its working from a brand awareness position. Friend asked about them just this week when considering a trip across the pond "they're the weird stripey ones right?"

Exactly! When I ride the subway home at night, I will see the tails lined up at Logan. You know when Condor is at the gate.

As nobody I henceforth dub Condor and it’s aircraft “The Flying Lollipop”

Great shot by the way!

I think they look so cool.
Wife and I went to Europe and flew the green one from SFO to FRA.
Here's a pic I snapped at SFO.

Nice, thanks for sharing! I’ve been on the gold one, which I think is my favorite. How did you like Condor?

commonsensetom.bsky.social•81 days ago

I liked that it was half the price of Lufthansa, but sad I didn't get to go on the 747.
Overall I liked Condor, we had a pair of bulkhead seats in premium economy so it was comfy the food and snacks were good. Wife loved it. I know there's some pretty scary reviews but everything was perfect for us.

Their prices are good, while LH's are often through the roof. The 747 is worth it if you haven't done it, in the future, but also I think the #paxex is similar or better on Condor's A339s these days.

Yep just once before they are gone.

Beautiful shot!
