Of all the bidders the LOT Group is probably the best. And it is good news that Condor continues flying. If the EU watchdogs give their blessing. I see problems from another direction.The magic word is " National Pride ". Being taken over by a Polish company will be hard to swallow for many people. I do have Polish roots ( three generations
back ) and know that people are still " reserved " when they hear or read my name. The Condor of these days reflects the heritage of being a German airline, since my
first journey on a Condor Viscount in 1962 to a most recent trip on a Boeing 757 nothing has changed, the appearance - in a positive sense - is purely Lufthansa. There will be difficult times ahead, and I wish the " new " Condor and its employees good luck.
