Hi Natalie.
I donīt know if it will be of any help to you, because I have only
flown with Spanair inside Spain (Bilbao - Madrid, only).
Spanair is kind of a daughter of SAS, so you can expect a similar
level of service.
I have been quite happy with my flights, but of course, itīs less
than an hour. But during that hour they have managed to serve
breakfast, while with Iberia you should be happy if you ask for a
glass of water and get it. Last time I flew with them was in July. We
didnīt have delays. I was flying back in the evening with Iberia,
and
we have 15 minutes delay, but I think that Barajas is the cause. I
donīt really like that airport. Itīs like a black hole. Thanks
God
the best connection flights from Bilbao go via Heathrow, Brussels or
Frankfurt.
But... last Friday Spanair cancelled the early morning flight from
Bilbao to Madrid because they only had 15 passengers. Also, they have
had a semi strike during this summer, mostly affecting late
flights. They werenīt on strike, but they were checking everything
and getting delayed. It seems to be over.
Friends of mine have flown with them to the States, and they say it
was quite good.
Hope it helps you. Rgds from Covadonga in Bilbao |
