FRANKFURT, Sept 23 (Reuters) - Germany's state of Hesse,
where collapsed travel group Thomas Cook's German
airline Condor is located, said it is ready to help the
airline's application for a federal government bridging loan.
"Obviously we will have to look whether there is a basis for
help by the state, just as with every other company," said state
leaders in a joint statement issued in the capital Wiesbaden on
Monday, affirming their readiness to support Condor.
The statement came after Condor asked the government for
help.
