In this post I wanted to review the Iberia Visa Signature® Card, which is one of Chase's less known travel rewards credit cards. I realized that I've never formally reviewed this card before, so that seems long overdue. This card has only been in the…
Often buying points can represent a great value, especially for first and business class award redemptions, where redeeming miles represents a disproportionately good deal. For those who like to buy miles, another airline has just rolled out a promotion…
Iberia has just announced a new route and some service increases, which are made possible by the airline taking delivery of new Airbus A350 aircraft. In 2020 Iberia's fleet of Airbus A350s will double to 12 planes, so that presents quite some growth…
Man, huge deals just keep happening in the airline industry. International Airlines Group (IAG) is the parent company of British Airways, Iberia, Aer Lingus, and Vueling. IAG has just announced that they've signed an agreement acquire Air Europe for…
In mid-June at the Paris Air Show, IAG (the parent company of British Airways, Iberia, Aer Lingus, and Vueling) expressed interest in a surprising aircraft. The company signed a letter of intent to acquire 200 Boeing 737 MAXs, valued at $24 billion at…
The Paris Air Show is going on right now, which has led to quite a few aircraft orders. However, this year it's Airbus with the edge over Boeing -- Airbus unveiled the A321XLR, while Boeing hasn't done a whole lot of anything, given their 737 MAX challenges.…
Yesterday Airbus formally launched the A321XLR, which is the new longest range single aisle plane in the world, and which I think will be immensely popular with airlines. The A321XLR will launch in 2023 and will have a range of 5,400 miles, giving it…
Iberia Plus has just launched a great promotion for US-based members. Specifically, Iberia Plus members can save 25% on transatlantic awards. This is valid for flights booked through March 27, 2019, and for travel between September 1 and December 14…
Iberia is one of the latest airlines to take delivery of the Airbus A350-900, which they're using to replace their A340s. The airline began by flying the A350 to New York JFK, with that service launching in August. Iberia's next A350 routes will be to…
I think it goes without saying that there are a lot of people with a lot of Iberia Avios, given the recent promotion for up to 90,000 Iberia Avios. The Avios expire on December 1, 2018, so you potentially only have a few months left to redeem them. It's…
The Aviation Herald has the story of what looks like quite a scary go around that happened at Quito Airport on Saturday, August 11, 2018: "An Iberia Airbus A340-600, registration EC-LEU performing flight IB-6453 from Madrid,SP (Spain) to Quito (Ecuador),…
The drama of the 90,000 Avios promotion continues... Like many other people, I was thrilled to hear the news earlier this week that the 90,000 Iberia Plus Avios from the recent promotion can actually be transferred to British Airways Executive Club accounts.…
Just over a month ago Iberia ran a promotion offering 9,000 bonus Avios for every ticket booked, up to 90,000 bonus Avios. Even cheap domestic tickets qualified, so many of us booked 10 one-way tickets from Malaga to Madrid for under $300, in hopes of…
Just under a month ago Iberia ran a promotion offering 9,000 bonus Avios for every ticket booked, up to 90,000 bonus Avios. Even cheap domestic tickets qualified, so many of us booked 10 one-way tickets from Malaga to Madrid for under $300, in hopes…
A couple of weeks ago Iberia ran what I considered to be the promotion of the year, as they offered 9,000 bonus Avios for every booked ticket. Even a cheap sub-$30 one-way ticket within Spain qualified. So I booked 10 one-way tickets from Malaga to Madrid…
Iberia Plus has run what I'd consider to be the promotion of the year, as they offered 9,000 bonus Avios for every segment booked, up to 90,000 bonus Avios. The Avios post within 10 days of booking rather than after flying, so many people booked $30…
In responding to comments this morning, it seems there is still a lot of enthusiasm around the potential 90,000 mile Iberia promo, and even more questions about how to actually use Iberia Avios. As you've probably noticed when booking your revenue tickets,…
Through tomorrow, Iberia is running what I'd consider to be the airline promotion of the year. The airline is offering 9,000 bonus Avios for every flight you book directly on iberia.com. The best part is that the Avios are supposed to post within 10…
Earlier I wrote about the incredible promotion where Iberia is offering 9,000 bonus Avios for every booking you make by June 24, 2018. Given that Iberia sells tickets starting at just ~$30 one-way, and given that they post the Avios within 10 days of…
This offer is simply crazy. Up until now I've held off on writing about it because I figured there was no way they'd honor this or intended for the promotion to be as such, but... it seems like this is for real? The promotion is pretty simple. You can…
LEVEL is IAG's new longhaul, low cost carrier. Arguably the biggest challenge faced by full service airlines nowadays is the increasing popularity of low cost carriers. IAG (the parent company of Aer Lingus, British Airways, and Iberia, among others)…
Iberia will soon be taking delivery of their first of 16 Airbus A350 aircraft, which they're using to modernize their longhaul fleet. Currently the airline operates a fleet of A330s and A340s for longhaul flights, so over time they plan to retire some…
A few times a year Iberia seems to offer discounts on award tickets in select regions. They're now back with a similar promotion, though it's intended to promote their new online award search tool. For bookings through March 18, 2018, the Iberia Plus…
Yesterday we learned that Avianca's LifeMiles program became a Citi ThankYou transfer partner, which is an awesome development. It looks like that's not the only transferable points currency picking up some new transfer partners in the past 24 hours.…
