Extra costs for luggage, drinks or a seat reservation: Anyone who books a flight knows that the simple ticket price is usually not enough.
And the airline Condor has come up with something new: You can now reserve a compartment for your hand luggage in Economy Class on selected long-haul flights.
"From as little as 9.99 euros you have guaranteed storage space for the hand luggage permitted in the tariff," says Condor.
Otherwise, as with all flights, there is a possibility that hand luggage will end up in the hold due to lack of space.
According to the "Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung", Condor boss Ralf Teckentrup considers this to be an everyday problem in aviation: "Many travelers are familiar with this: You are sitting at the gate, boarding begins and you wonder whether your own piece of hand luggage still has a place in the overhead compartment will find.” Condor now wants to make money from the potential concerns of travelers.
The offer is valid from November 1 on flights with the Airbus A330-200 operating on long-haul routes.
