As of April 30 Iberia will suspend its thrice-weekly return flights between Madrid and Johannesburg. The airline made the decision owing to the sharp rise in fuel prices and the continuing world economic crisis.
Advice for Customers:
• Customers holding tickets issued to travel from 1st May 2012 onwards will be rebooked via LON with BA on an involuntary reroute basis in the following manner:
• Customers with routings between Spain and South Africa will be rebooked by Iberia via LON on IB marketed flights operated by BA and tickets can be reissued by the agencies.
• Customers travelling between South Africa & North, Central or South America will also be rebooked by IB via LON on IB marketed flights operated by BA and once again tickets can be reissued by the agencies.

South African passport holders will have to get a transit visa to travel through Heathrow.
