Condor, a German leisure carrier that operates scheduled services to holiday destinations worldwide, is hoping to start operations to Sri Lanka.
Condor is represented in Sri Lanka and the Maldives by Hayleys Aviation, a subsidiary of the blue-chip multinational conglomerate Hayleys PLC.

The new co-operation between our two brands will allow us to garner new segments and explore greater commercial opportunities for our business in Asia,” stated Condor Head of Sales for Overseas Markets Carsten Sasse.
Hayleys Aviation Director/CEO Gerard Victoria commenting on the partnership with Condor stated: “We are deeply honoured that Condor has selected Hayleys Aviation as their General Sales Agent in Sri Lanka and the Maldives. We have always looked at ways and means of expanding the aviation industry of Sri Lanka, and this partnership comes at a strategic phase as both brands are expanding beyond the horizon.”
