Does Condor have internet on their route to Germany POP-FRA?

I went the other way, FRA to POP on Condor about two months ago and they did not. Crappy little TV's with not very much selection either. Drinks were free though.

I have been looking to book a flight to FRA via anywhere in the DR, but everything online goes through the US. Rubio Higuey replied in my other thread that you need to go to a travel agent to book a flight originating in the DR.
Some airlines aren't licensed to sell flights originating from the DR via the net......who knows, but I am going to see a travel agent in the next couple of days to find out exactly if I can fly direct........
Let me know if you find anything

Try Air Berlin,
They don't fly to FRA but Munich is a major hub for Lufthansa and connecting flights.
Check the drop down menu for other cities.
They fly from POP or PUJ in the DR.

You can do round-trip flight originating from POP with Condor, this is no problem, but you cannot book it directly with Condor (just like mentioned, and I suppose because they are principally a charter airline with the point being outbound service from Germany), BUT you also don?t need to go personally to any travel agent, but simply do the booking online with various online booking engines.

I tried to book my flight (POP-FRA-POP) online and it was not available, but my secretary got it no problem via telephone and direct deposit in bank account.

You are not specific here as to where online? Like I said, directly via Condor, you are right, it is not possible, but via other booking engine it is. I can say this with confidence as I have done this without any issues. Never called anywhere, everything done online.

And yes, via telephone sure.

For example from kayak.com, (cannot post direct link due to the search), search for non-stop round-trip (or one way) flight POP-FRA, so that the travel day is always either Tuesday or Friday, since on these days Condor has departures from POP. If you look for about at least 1 month forward, you should get Condor as one of the first results, as the price goes down. You can also book with much shorter notice, but obviously Condor won?t be in the first results anymore, as the price has jumped, so first you get United, AA etc.

Other sites that sells Condor are at least cheaptickets.com and cheapoair.com

Hammerdown, it may sound like a joke but I found flights for myself today to venice at http://cheapoair.com. First leg is pop to frankfurt on condor. Was also cheapest and shortest connections to venice that I've found.


Expedia wouldn't give me anything except more expensive flights thru New York and 10-14 hours more travel time

I tried Condor's website, and Kayak (which searches other websites), and that flight never pops up.

Seems that they have changed the Condor website since my latest visit, now I would be able to book POP-FRA-POP from there directly. Just like rubio_higuey did, would you be able to take a print-screen of the search you made?

Yes, they must have changed, because I just went into the Condor page and selected a flight from POP to FRA July 18 - and NO problem. You are now able to buy the flights direct by Condor online - perfect…
I travel at least 3 times per year - POP-FRA-POP and I always bought the tickets from POP on Travelmarket.com. The only problem I had was the fact that I could only buy economy class and they have a superior class: premium economy which is much better ( it costs aprox. 100 Euro more)
I ONCE made the mistake and traveled with Air Berlin to DUS, which was an absolute disaster. The ticket was more expensive even though I only booked the normal economy class. The service was terrible and if it is possible I will never travel with Air Berlin again.
The only bad thing by booking online by Condor is the fact that you don’t get an electronic ticket .. So if you have a connecting flight from somewhere else in Europe ( with another flight company) the check in machines at the airports do not accept the Condor code and you have to make the line to get your boarding card .

I was able to do this directly from the landing page (condor.com/us/index.jsp), from=pop, to=fra, round-trip or one-way, the dates have to be either Tuesday or Friday and search. There are still seats even in the flight next Tuesday (June 10th), the lowest rates from the June 13th.
