German leisure airline Condor has concluded 35 years of Boeing 757 service with a special final flight. On November 5, 2025, the last Boeing 757 in its fleet, a 757-300 registered as D-ABOM and featuring a red-and-white candy-striped livery, flew a round trip from Frankfurt to Vienna carrying over 100 passengers.
The pencil-shaped Boeing 757 has been central to Condor’s short and medium-haul fleet for more than three decades. The airline operated 18 Boeing 757-200 models and nine of the larger 757-300s during this period.
In recent weeks, most of Condor’s Boeing 757 aircraft were retired, with several flown to Cotswold Airport in the UK for dismantling and parts recovery.
The farewell flight included longtime Condor employees, journalists, and devoted Boeing 757 enthusiasts. Earlier in September 2025, 75 tickets were auctioned through Condor’s online shop, allowing fans a chance to be aboard the final journey.
