Anybody had any issues using a CDC card for flight entry to Germany?

I'm flying with Condor from the USA to France, not leaving Frankfurt airport but technically it counts as entering Germany.

I'm fully vaccinated so shouldn't need to show a test, just proof of vaccination, as I'll be showing the CDC card at check-in time then they ought to recognize and accept it, but there's always an element of worry they won't.
Anbody had any issues using a CDC card for entry to Gemany, especially with Condor?

(Its absolutly impossible to contact Condor to ask/confirm them directly)

No issues whatsoever at the moment You just need to show your CDC card at check in.

Biontech is what the Pfizer vaccines is called in Germany. It, moderna, and j&j and AZ are all valid here. In my experience Germans are familiar with the CDC card but if you really want to save yourself some hassle you could try getting a EU digital passport once you arrive - but that may be frustrating in France.

"Biontech is what the Pfizer vaccines is called in Germany"

Phew, I had a moment of panic when I couldn't find the name Pfizer mentioned anywhere in an email from Condor and the German official web sites.

We just flew Condor STC to FRA Tuesday. CDC cards with Pfizer Biontech vaccines worked well. Suggest you have your return or onward flight info available at check-in.
