Etsi halvat lennot: Iberia

Miinukset: Pedí un resumen del vuelo para ver lo que compré y nunca me llegó.

Plussat: The pilot did an excellent job navigating through rough weather.

Miinukset: Boarding is a mess, too many special groups, and then the masses get in and it just becomes a zoo inside the plane. There are so many charges, flying these days is really not better than taking a local bus.

A plane for midgets

Plussat: Nothing

Miinukset: The space between seats was just microscopic. I’m 6ft tall and I really had a bad time in those 2h30, all twisted and unconfortable.

Denied boarding

Plussat: Not a lot.

Miinukset: Arriving at the gate whilst the flight was still boarding, with a boarding pass in my hand, and being told that my seat had been given to someone else because the Airline unilaterally decided that my connecting flight from Bogotá would not arrive in time. Followed by two hours of Iberia staff being surly, not looking me in they eye and doing absolutely nothing about getting me home. I have now been travelling for nearly 30 hours without sleep, am stuck in Madrid with no certainty of when or how I will get home or see my luggage again, and am seriously seriously pissed off. I do accept that things can sometimes go wrong and that it is nobody’s fault. This is definitely somebody’s fault.

A bit delayed but otherwise a smooth service

Plussat: Speed of boarding and disembarking. Comfortable seats.

Miinukset: Slight delay

Missed the flight

Miinukset: The flight to Madrid from Porto left so late I missed my connecting flight to Bilbao and I so I took a bus to my destination.
