Often buying points can represent a great value, especially for first and business class award redemptions, where redeeming miles represents a disproportionately good value. So for those who like to buy miles, another airline has just rolled out a promotion…
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…
Amazingly this fare has been around for a couple of days, and is still available. Iberia has sub-1,000EUR business class fares for travel from various points in Spain to various points in Mexico. This fare is pretty readily available, though you'll find…

Okay, the highlight of the Iberia Plus program was certainly last year when they offered a promotion for 90,000 Avios after booking 10 tickets. For those who still have Iberia Plus Avios (or have access to them through other means, as I'll discuss below),…
Over the summer Iberia Plus had a generous promotion, where they were offering 9,000 bonus Avios for every flight booked during that period, for a total of up to 90,000 Avios for booking 10 flights. The best part was that they didn’t actually require…

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…

I think at this point we're all familiar with the ridiculously generous promotion that Iberia offered, where you could earn 9,000 bonus Avios for every flight you booked on Iberia, up to 90,000 bonus Avios. Many of us took advantage of this promotion,…
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…
It's been a big week here at OMAAT already! After posting earlier this week about not panicking if you could not access your Iberia Plus account that you opened to take advantage of the 'promo of the year,' then came the excellent news that the bonus…
I've been flying during US business hours on Monday and Tuesday without wifi, so as much as I would have loved to track the minute-by-minute of the Iberia Avios situation, I wasn't able to. Perhaps that's a blessing, because I would have probably spent…
