Eurowings is in the mind of Germans too much connected with low cost and Germanwings .So rebranding Condor for long haul IT flights may work . But not with the old 75s and especially the 76s ..
EW uses a mixture of GE-powered A332s (from SunEx), GE-powered A333s (from Brussels) and A343s (ex LH airframes).
Zero ex AB/LTU airframes in service for EW on the long-haul sector. LTU/ ABs A332/3s were all PW4000 powered.

Different story with the single-aisle Airbii altogther.
