Luftfahrt: Eigner Attestor übernimmt Condor komplett - Staat steigt aus
Der Mehrheitseigner Attestor übernimmt alle Anteile an Condor. Der Bund und das Land Hessen ziehen sich zurück. Staatshilfen aus früheren Krisenjahren sind vorzeitig zurückbezahlt.
Frankfurt - The German state is gradually withdrawing from the vacation airline Condor, as the majority owner, Attestor, is set to acquire the remaining 49 percent stake by the end of August 2027. The takeover, which was originally agreed upon when Condor entered into a financial arrangement with the investment firm in 2021, will finalize on the stipulated date of 31st August 2027.
The federal government and the state of Hesse had stepped in during the crisis following the insolvency of Thomas Cook's parent company and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Condor had returned the state aid prematurely in spring 2026. The airline has been modernizing its long-haul fleet, expanding its short and medium-haul operations, and developing its city-link network as a feeder for Frankfurt Airport.
Condor's own feeder services are crucial, as Lufthansa terminated the previous feeder contract. Specific financial details were not disclosed.
