TRIPREPORT | Condor (ECONOMY) | Boeing 757-300 | Rhodes - Dusseldorf

The Boeing 757-300, the world's longest single-aisle aircraft... Because of its shape it's also sometimes referred to as "The Pencil", but is it any different compared to an A320 or a 737?

"The Flying Pencil"! "The Seattle Rocket"! I LOVE the 757!

Simply aviation continues entertaining us with amazing tripreports 😀👍✈️

No matter what, Condor will always remain my favourite airline! :D
The many childhood memories and the extraordinarily friendly personnel always made it unique to me! And it‘s history (even its recent one) is quite interesting :)

Got to love Condor 757s, a personal favourite of mine as I saw them so often at Manchester back in the days of COVID-free travel. Interesting to see how the Condor logo was slapped on the tail to replace the TC heart logo, looks odd on the aircraft with the blue livery.
(Side note: The DC-8 60 and 70 series aircraft are longer, but the 753 is still the longest twin jet narrow body)

A tip I would give is try to get a seat next to the engines of the Boeing 757. According to Condor the 757-300 has a mostly Economy Class layout, you should have a good chance of getting a seat by the engines especially for a low price. Like flying an Ryanair 737, Southwest 737, or an Easy Jet Airbus. If you are in the United States, UNITED aitlines has regular economy seats that provide great views of the RB-211 engens. Most of my 757 flights were with DELTA and almost all of them had me seated by the PW-2000. I have had great experiences with the 757. Great video by the way.

Man that Tripreport brought back so many childhood memories. My grandparents and I used to fly with condor to Greece, Turkey and Fuerteventura ^^. All flights were operated with the 757 (got an old Aircraft-Modell back in 2002-03 :D) Its great to see that condor uses them today. I had my last Condor-Flight back in December 2017 from Frankfurt to St Georges (in the Caribbean ) with the 767-300er (called Achim) and I enjoyed every second of it ^^. Can´t wait to see the new A330 Neos :D

Great video Felix! I’ve only flown on Arkia 757-300, which had an older cabin than this. Took off like a rocket and very sturdy! They’re powerful planes and are great workhorses. No wonder they’re used a lot in the USA, where connecting 300± passengers an numerous big routes is key. The A321XLR will probably one day be it’s successor. Keep up the great work!

Amazing tripreport! Is food complimentary in condor or we have to pay? Cause iam planning going a trip on condor:)

Der Purser (ich gehe jetzt einmal davon aus, dass das der Purser dieses Fluges gewesen ist) macht mit seiner Kabinendurchsage unmittelbar nach der Landung in DUS einen sehr symphatischen und auch sehr gut gelaunten Eindruck. Sehr warmherzig und nicht so kurz und Business-like, wie bei den meisten anderen Airlines. Ich hoffe wirklich sehr, dass er auch noch heute unzählige Condor Fluggäste in bester Urlaubs- und Ferienlaune versetzt. Gerade bei Condor gibt es sehr viele männliche Flugbegleiter, mit scheinbar einer großen Portion Humor. Daran merkt man, dass man bei Condor noch sehr gerne Fluggäste in den wohlverdienten Urlaub fliegt.

Love seeing them here at PMI, every single day pretty much in summer.

[TheConfius]

The 757-300 is so rare! I may be flying it with Delta in spring. I hope it can happen with the pandemic.

[austinluke]

Rode one once from seattle to jfk. I like these things.

[fotiskantis]

Man I cannot believe you went to my homeland Rhodes island great video

[HIMALAYA]

That’s a massive load of €8 snacks 😚
Du bist großartig 👏🏻

[AviationFin]

Good video my friend, Thanks for sharing!

[Ananth]

Awesome trip report of this beautiful bird .... Very excited to see your videos...It was so amazing to see Vienna airport from that height

[tinaliasiofficial]

It will be great to see some trips to Cyprus please. (Larnaca-Paphos) 😊

[TripReportaviation]

You boarding by bus has helped me imagine the length of the 757. It's so

[swizzystudios]

Funnily enough? 3 months after this was filmed I also came to this island!

[sushi]

Maracuja would translate to passion fruit btw 😅
I've made that mistake too
Lovely trip report nonetheless 🙂
