Emirates and Condor rely on Codeshare

The airlines Emirates and Condor have signed a mutual codeshare partnership that will come into effect in October 2024.

The new codeshare agreement offers Emirates customers seamless flight connections and an expanded choice of connecting options on Condor flights via Germany to popular destinations such as Mallorca and the Canary Islands, as well as international destinations in North, Central and South America and the Caribbean.

As part of the expanded partnership, Condor will add its airline code DE to Emirates flights departing from Dubai to a number of tourist hotspots, offering new travel options for Condor customers to numerous destinations in the Middle East, Africa, Central Asia and the Indian subcontinent. The codeshare activation will coincide with the launch of Condor's route between Berlin and Dubai in October this year.

The agreement was signed by Adnan Kazim, Emirates Deputy President and Chief Commercial Officer, and Peter Gerber, CEO of Condor, at the IATA Annual General Meeting in Dubai and in the presence of senior management from both airlines.

In November 2023, Emirates and Condor signed a reciprocal interline agreement. This will provide passengers with improved flight connectivity on 70 routes operated by both airlines in Europe, Africa, Asia, Australasia and the Middle East with a single end-to-end ticket fare and baggage policy. Emirates and Condor also signed an agreement on the Emirates Skywards frequent flyer programme.
