Hi All!
I just noticed that Iberia Air has flights from the US to Spain. Has anyone used Iberia from the US? What were your experiences? Good, bad, indifferent? How were they for arrival & departure times? Did it take long to get through customs?
Sorry for all the questions, I haven't traveled overseas before so it's all new to me! Thanks in advance!
I live in Canada and have had a flight booked from Toronto USA to Spain apart from too much security at US airport Iberia is a great experience. Good staff and food great with extra wine for your meals.Hi All!

I can't offer any experience regarding Iberia airline but YAY, happy to know there is plenty of security in America. There is no such thing as too much security.I live in Canada and have had a flight booked from Toronto USA to Spain apart from too much security at US airport Iberia is a great experience.

There is a new low cost airline, LEVEL, ( https://www.flylevel.com ) that is associated with Iberia in some way. It has flights from a few US airports.

From personal experience I'm not able to report on either airline.
So, is Iberia Express a thing of the past? I know that Iberia converted a lot of its internal flights to Iberia Express a few years ago. That seemed to have no effect on anything except (according to a flight attendant) that Iberia was able to resume flying those flights without complying with union contracts. I will say that Iberia or Iberia Express’ flights in Spain have absolutely the least amount of legroom I have ever seen. But I have no complaints about service at all, fly them every year.There is a new low cost airline, LEVEL, ( https://www.flylevel.com ) that is associated with Iberia in some way.

We have e flown both and had no problems. We had heard some horror stories about Level (the budget division of Iberia) but fortunately they were just rumors.

I would be flying from DallasTravelled from JFK to Madrid on my last camino on Iberia. No problems with the flight, etc. However, the flight arrived around 6:30am local time. There was a line for immigration. this was compounded by the fact another flight had also arrived from Mexico. In 2017, on my first camino, my flight via America Airlines arrived around 8:30am local time. Upon entering immigration, there were three lines: One for European Union passport holders, non European Union, and American passport holders. Obviously, me being a US passport holder, I went to the that line, presented my passport, stamped it, and I was on my way pretty much no questions asked. When I went last year, there was only two lines, EU and non EU passport holders. Went to the non EU line, waited about 20 minutes, presented my passport, etc., was asked a few questions, and went on my way. Don't why the American passport line wasn't open/available, it may be open certain hours, whatever. And don't why I wasn't asked any questions the first time and why I was asked questions the second time. (Plausible answer: we live in a post September 11th world). With that being said, I would default and assume there would be a wait at immigration when you arrive. Hope this all makes sense. Any other questions, I will be happy to answer. May I ask where you are flying from?
Good luck.
Buen Camino.
