Condor Standardizes Larger Carry-On Now and Raises Checked-Bag Limits in 2027

The change positions the carrier against Lufthansa's new bare-bones Basic fare.

Overview

  • Condor, which put new cabin-bag sizes into effect Friday, now allows one 55×40×23 cm bag plus a 40×30×15 cm personal item.
  • Checked-baggage limits will rise on May 1, 2027 to 1×23 kg in Economy, 1×32 kg in Premium Economy, and 2×32 kg in Business.
  • The policy is uniform across the network to replace route-based rules that confused through travelers.
  • COO Christian Schmitt said the shift aligns Condor with international standards to ease trips that include partner airlines.
  • The update serves as a customer-friendly counterpoint to Lufthansa’s new Basic tariff that includes only a small personal item.
