PLEASE LOOK CAREFULLY AT THE SEAT ASSIGNEMENT! It is worth to pay more to avoid the rows by the restrooms which do not recline.
Verified travelerFlew with Condor-Oct 2026
The airport is huge. The rental car location is far from the international Terminal 1, but there is a tram to connect the terminals. It’s convenient, but allow enough time to navigate this huge place. Also, leave plenty of time to get through German passport control after going through TSA.
