New Etihad-Condor Partnership Opens More Routes to Israel

Great news for travelers planning trips to Israel from Germany! Etihad Airways has announced a strategic partnership with German airline Condor that could make your journey easier and more affordable.

Starting summer 2026, Condor will operate daily flights from Frankfurt and Berlin to Abu Dhabi, connecting seamlessly with Etihad’s extensive network. This means smoother connections to Israel and over 80 other destinations worldwide through Etihad’s Abu Dhabi hub.

Why does this matter for your Israel trip? Abu Dhabi has become a popular stopover point for travelers heading to Tel Aviv, often offering competitive prices and convenient timing. The new partnership should create more flight options and potentially better deals for German travelers – and those connecting through Germany from other European cities.

If you’re booking travel from Europe to Israel, it’s worth checking this routing option once flights launch in 2026. The partnership combines Condor’s strong German market presence with Etihad’s Middle East connectivity, which could mean more competitive pricing for your Israel vacation.
