Condor Boeing B767 300ER version1 seat review by SANDRO VERONESI #26571

OUTBOUND CONDOR FLIGHT (DE5302 - 11Feb2011)

We paid extra for Premium Economy seats on a Condor flight. We were assigned places 6H and 6K straight behind the separation barrier. They were so tight we could hardly move, let alone stretching our legs. We checked the ordinary economy seats behind barriers (22H and 22K) and realised that the space available was basically the same we had. In reality even the normal economy seats (provided they are not behind the barrier) are better than the one assigned to us. In conclusion we paid approx. 400€ extra for the worst seats on the plane, a couple of free drinks and a sleepless night.
It's simply not fair and probably illegal (our lawyer is working on it) to make us pay for seats better than the economy ones and deliver seats worse than the normal economy seats, if we do not receive some sort of compensation we will never fly Condor again or, lacking alternatives, we will change destination.


RETURN CONDOR FLIGHT (DE5303 - 26 Feb 2011)

We had seats 7E-7G, quite comfortable. In 6H 6K there was a middle age couple, when we walked in, they were standing in the aisle looking at the seats in disbelief. They where really upset, probably even more than we were, the stewardess tried to calm them down and asked everybody around, looking for someone prepared to swap seats...obviously without success... there are plenty of stupid people around ... but not that stupid!!
