Horrible. Paid for seats for my family. Iberia changed planes and never notified us that the seats we paid extra for did not even exist on the plane. We were randomly placed on the plane. Thankfully, we were seated together. Upon boarding, my youngest daughter was pulled from the line and they just arbitrarily changed her seat 7 rows back from the rest of the family. I had to wait at the gate while they tried to see us back together. One of the most uncomfortable small spaces on a plane I’ve ever experienced. When I called Iberia, they first told me that no mistake was made that the plane was never changed. Yet my receipt for my paid seats were for rows that did not even exist on this type of plane we were getting on. They said that they would reimburse my money and I would get an email, but I’ve never received any information or emails regarding a refund for the seats that I had paid extra for. Then when we arrived in Madrid, one of the pieces of luggage that we had checked in was damaged to the point that the handle that was stowed in to the luggage was broken off by the crew members handling the luggage. The crew on the plane was very nice, but as far as the rest of the experience, I would be very hesitant to ever use Iberia again.

Bad business class. Staff totally not helping. Lights and chargers not working

The flight left Tanger two hours late and I missed my flight to Geneva.

This was such a bad experience. Iberia in Paris Orly refused to issue the boarding pass for my connecting international flight. They were evasive but said it would be dealt with in Madrid. In Madrid there was no help, no transit desk, I almost missed the flight trying to get the boarding pass and only at the gate they told me they had downgraded me. I really felt abused.

The connection required us to travel from terminal A to terminal E with very little time in between flights. While waiting in line, we were called to the service desk to provide our passports. We provided our passports at time of check in, assuming that American Airlines doesn’t communicate well with Iberia, this was a headache.

Almost great...Need more signs around the airport, especially in Italy Marco Polo.

HORRIBLE. 3 hours delayed. Crew did not communicate properly and was rude to passengers enquiring. Delay caused multiple passengers to miss connections.

Boarding was messy, without adequate priority assignments. Information at boarding was poor. One of the agents to whom I asked why group 2 was boarding after groups 3, 4 and 1 (in that order) replied: Orders of the captain. If you want to know the reason, ask him”. That was a ridiculous response.

1. The flight was late and I did jot get the seat I paid for. I paid for extra leg room and a window seat. I got a middle seat without extra leg room. 2. The customer service representative was not helpful. Explanation: many passengers arrived to the service desk in Madrid near baggage claim to rebook our flights. (We all missed our connecting flight due to delays in JFK). Upon arrival, ghere was one service agent and one line-business. After about 25-30 minutes the agent left and we could see her making a phone call. After about 5 more minutes, 2 other agents arrived. During our wait, another line formed for main cabin customers. We were told to go to the other line, even after waiting around 30-40 minutes. This would have been disastrous for ghose of us who had been waiting for so long. The agents need more training.

One of our bags did not make the connecting flight in Madrid. We have not received any word today on its location. Seats were so narrow and uncomfortable!

The punctuality of f the flight was super: we left on time and arrived about 20 minutes early - and the cabin crew were both friendly and efficient. The only downside was that Ryanair appears to have resumes its old obsession with sizing cabin bags again after a long and welcome absence.

There plane had a technical pricken so we had to disembark, but the replacement aircraft was provided within one hour so there was not much delay.

Miserable staff did not want to be there. Very poor atmosphere boarding. Then just basic flight.

I liked nothing. An extremely uncomfortable flight, staff were rude, no ice for my drink. 4 hours of misery

We were diverted to warsaw and there was zero information. We were just forced to disembark and off we go good luck the reat of the way. We all had to go our ways to find a way home!!!! Horrible horrible and it cost us alot of money to get a hotel and trains 4:30 pm next day.

Long delay was made worse by lack of information and long time in queue waiting for the plane to arrive

Blood contaminated tissue was stuffed to the back of the seat in front of us.

The check-in process is very confusing. The company charges for everything, but tickets are low priced. I probably wouldn't take the airline for a flight over 3 hours. The seats are uncomfortable. There's no net on the seats to hold things like headphones, a folder or anything.

My flight was delayed 1 hour. My Mood was not great

Lord knows why they had us start boarding when the plane wasn't even there, staff weren't welcoming and the couple next to me travelling with a young child had a nightmare with the baby changing facilities.

They did not provide free WiFi, It could be purchased for, I think, around $25, This seemed excessive.

Good flight, awful, vindictive, vile customer services in T5 Heathrow.

Ok we did get an upgrade and the flight was delayed 45 minutes BUT without any bias. The crew were excellent, friendly, efficient and verging on exuberant, they all were so happy to do their jobs. Food excellent and the new safety video is fun to watch.

Reliable, great value, but not outstanding in any aspect. This is similar to the experience you get in most international carriers like Etihad or Delta.

Aer Lingus was the actual airline so they handled everything professionally.

Flight got diverted because of an emergency and the crew were fantastic and probably saved that passenger’s life. While in emergency landing some measures could have been taken to prevent additional delays. In general not great experience with BA. I used to fly BA years ago all the time, very disappointed by the whole experience, seats were tight, bathrooms tight.

Business class area too small and chair and equipment not comfortable .

Lost my luggage in London Was double charged for luggage

BAD!!! due to delay I missed my connection in MEX, had to pay for hotel and new flight for next morning increasing my spent for $1,000 usd

Boarding could have been better organized. The one member of staff disappeared for a while so boarding by group relied on honesty.
