Condor's hub, Munich airport launches 'Josie', a humanoid robot, to greet passengers 

Meet Josie Pepper. She's 1m 20cm all, big round eyes and a pleasant voice. From now on, you'll find her at Munich airport answering questions for passengers in Terminal 2.  Whether they need directions to their gate or want to stop at a certain restaurant or shop, Josie Pepper will look them in the eyes and answer their question expertly.

 

Munich Airport and Lufthansa are working together to break new ground: It is the first-ever test of a humanoid robot equipped with artificial intelligence at a German airport.  For the next few weeks, Josie Pepper will welcome travellers to the non-public area of Terminal 2, which is jointly operated by Munich Airport and Lufthansa. In her initial deployment, Josie Pepper, who speaks English, will await passengers at the top of the ramp leading to the shuttle connecting the main terminal to the satellite building.  This test phase will be used to show whether Josie Pepper is accepted by passengers.

 

Josie Pepper’s “brain” contains a high-performance processor with a WLAN internet access.  This creates a connection to a cloud service where speech is processed, interpreted and linked to the airport data.  The airport says what sets the system apart is when this robot speaks, it does not just deliver pre-defined texts.  With its ability to learn, it answers each question individually.  Just like a real brain, the system gets steadily better at combining questions with the relevant information to provide more precise replies.

 

Josie was developed by the French company SoftBank Robotics and IBM Watson Internet of Things (IoT) cloud-based, artificial intelligence technologies determined her capabilities. The robot was given the name “Josie” by the staff of Munich Airport and Lufthansa when she arrived.

Condor adds Canary Islands capacity to cover for Niki

Condor (DE, Frankfurt Int'l) has announced it will add additional capacity to a number of German airports, as well as to Vienna and Zurich, to cover for the market gap left following the grounding of Niki (HG, Vienna). 

The carrier will offer additional flights from Cologne/Bonn, Dusseldorf and Munich to Lanzarote, Las Palmas and Tenerife Sur, as well as from Cologne/Bonn and Dusseldorf to Fuerteventura. The German leisure specialist will also serve Lanzarote and Las Palmas from Zurich and Vienna. 

The airline also extended the summer-only flights from Cologne/Bonn, Dusseldorf, Frankfurt Int'l and Munich to Palma Son Sant Joan for the winter period. Condor has announced it plans to offer a total of 68,000 extra seats on all additional services and is working closely with tour operators to ensure they are able to carry all passengers who were supposed to travel on Niki. 

Niki suspended all operations on December 14, a day after Lufthansa Group's decision to withdraw its takeover offer forced it to file for bankruptcy. Air Berlin bankruptcy administrators are currently examining four other bids for the carrier including from founder Niki Lauda, IAG International Airlines Group, PrivatAir (Switzerland) and Thomas Cook Group. A decision is expected in early 2018.

Condor Launches New Bahamas Flights

Germany’s Condor Airlines has launched a new nonstop flight between Frankfurt and The Bahamas.

The first Condor-Nassau flight arrived to the sounds of Junkanoo drums at Nassau’s Lynden Pindling Airport on Monday.

Condor is operating the service on Boeing 767 aircraft.

The seasonal service will operate through April 30, 2018.

“Because of the partnership not only with Condor but the various tour operators, we will now have the ability to bring people from places like Munich, Berlin, Milan, Copenhagen, Denmark and other areas in Germany,” said Tyrone Sawyer, Senior Director of Airlift Development at the Bahamas Ministry of Tourism and Aviation. “We will also have representation from the various Out Islands, Nassau/Paradise Island and Grand Bahama Promotion Boards, and through an interline arrangement with Bahamasair, passengers will have the opportunity to go to every single island in The Bahamas. This allows us to spread tourism not only to Nassau but throughout The Bahamas.”

March 2017

 

Condor Airline and Alaska Airlnes agree to mileage partnership. The carrier flies to the transport hub of Frankfurt, Germany, from Anchorage, Fairbanks and several West Coast cities. Seasonal nonstop service between Anchorage and Frankfurt begins May 16, while nonstop flights out of Fairbanks resume on June 15. Condor also offers direct flights to Frankfurt year-round from Alaska Airlines' hub in Seattle. Condor is Germany's third-largest airline. Existing Alaska Mileage Plan members can start earning miles immediately. Redemption for award travel will begin at a later date. In March 2017, Condor Airline and Air Namibia announce new codeshare agreement. Condor and Air Namibia concluded a codeshare agreement that will allow Condor passengers to have access to daily flight connections to Windhoek from summer 2017. The twice-weekly Condor flights from Frankfurt (Mondays and Fridays) are being supplemented with flights from Air Namibia.

 

This means that passengers can make their plans with more flexibility and chose from nine weekly connections during the summer flight plan and from seven weekly connections in the upcoming winter. From April onwards, all codeshare flights will be available with a Condor flight number and airline code “DE” through the Condor booking channels. The Condor codeshare flight number will also be used on connecting Air Namibia flights within Southern Africa. This will result in passengers benefitting from convenient connections to Johannesburg, Cape Town, Harare and Walvis Bay. As part of the agreement, Air Namibia flight numbers with the “SW” code will also be offered on many routes in the Condor route network.

The codeshare routes, such as in the Caribbean, to North America or in the Mediterranean, open up a selection of many new holiday destinations and connections for Air Namibia guests. In March 2017, Condor Airlines announced a new mileage plan partnership with Alaska Airlines. This partnership allows Alaska frequent flier members the ability to travel nonstop and accrual mileage to Europe, starting today. Previously, Alaska Airlines and Condor Airlines had an “interline agreement,” which allowed the two airlines to connect passengers between carriers, from Europe and North America. However, their earlier agreement excluded the new mileage partnership. Current Alaska Mileage Plan members can begin earning miles immediately, as they will count towards the plan’s elite status; however, award travel redemption will “begin at a later date,” says Alaska Airlines. Also, the company welcomes Condor travelers to join their mileage plan for free. Alaska Airlines adds that Virgin America’s Elevate program users will also benefits from the deal, if travelers use their 2017 issued Alaska Mileage Plan number.
