Iberia nightmare

Just in case you are traveling with Iberia in the next few days. Prepare for delays.

Today 41 Iberia flights from Madrid was canceled. They are struggling with pilots on "strike"/slow down for several weeks now... and it does not look like it will be fixed soon. I have seen several reports on the news that talks to passengers that have been waiting hours and days (!) for their flight.

Just to add to all this, this is what the Madrid airport looked like today.

Ivar,
you should visit Finland and see aal the snow and winter we´ve got. I´m been a primary school teacher for 24 years now and never, NEVER, has schools been closed for the winter or snow...
We Finns have difficulties with heat and sunshine... You win some you lose some.
