I booked a flight through Air Canada for a flight from Barcelona on 07-13-19 to Montreal and was…read morehappy that it was not Air Canada that I was flying. Why? Well Air Canada is a penny pinching airline that is not customer service oriented, kind of like most U.S. based airlines. Qatar on the other hand, is very customer service oriented. The flight attendents treat you with dignity and respect, not like just another passenger. I would fly this airline again sometime in the future if I am given the choice. The only thing a little questionable to me is all of the religious stuff on their TV choices. I understand that you have a choice not to watch any of the religious stuff, but just seems a little weird. Otherwise, everyone on board treats passengers very well.

If you purchased tax free items the you have to claim your refund at the airport, and it's located in the far back right of terminal 1. That process was straightforward - kiosk and then check in with a staff member, who told us our refunds would be automatically issued. Check in with United was also quick. Clear signage towards security which was also a smooth process. Overall, minimal wait times to get through the airport. Huge Duty Free as soon as you get past security. Definitely spent a good hour here shopping for items. Picked up Spanish wine, some duty free exclusive gin, snacks, and jarred goods. Signage towards gates was also clear and easy to follow. Quick stop by the lounge and then made it to our gate as they were boarding. Overall smooth experience.

He checked our bags but he was extremely unhappy that the kiosk directed us to him. The hubs was a little disappointed when Air France confiscated his carry on bag. In Europe some airlines have strict measurements for carrying on bags. Now let's talk about Customs...OMG...a long line maze repeat of Rome. Why you might ask? It is clearly understaffing. Only this time it was 1.5 hours. AND this is low traveling season. I can only imagine what the summer months are like. I'm greenbelt certified in business process improvement. One easy improvement would be clear delineation of where you need to go with better signage and better stanchion placement. The customs agent keep repeating the same message to each passenger. Then we got to the window, we saw there were only 2 agents. Long arduous process...

Flew Ryan Air for the first time last night. Airline is so barebones they actually do something…read moreright. Instead of the cringe disingenuous bye bye thank you every airline does as you deplane Ryan Air staff couldn't be bothered and just lets you off in silence. They want you out of their lives as much as you want them out of yours. No seat back pockets either. It's like the Costco of airlines. Bring your own boxes and bags. And if you didn't select the right ticket for a carry on or checked bag they will penalize you when you check in. I saw a woman who had the audacity to show up with a back pack in addition to her cross body mama don't play purse and they nearly tased her.

We flew to Barcelona with British Airways, flew home with Iberia and American Airlines orchestrated…read morethe whole thing. Got to love those codeshare confusions! We arrived at the Barcelona airport and were greeted by Mercedes. She was so pleasant and very informative. We flew from Barcelona to Madrid and the ticket agent was very rude. I don't remember the question now but she had no clue what customer service was and also did not like to speak. Worse, on the plane, everybody's sound system and video were not working. For the whole flight. From Madrid to Miami! We had been in a rush that day and I was not able to eat much for breakfast on the cruise ship we were leaving. I also did not like that food choices at the Barcelona Airport and we raced to get to the departure area in Madrid. So no time for me to eat. We were served two meals on the flight from Miami to Madrid. The first one was truly hideous. I normally pickier with my food but when I am hungry and flying, I don't really have a choice. The supposed meat I was served truly horrific. But the salad was actually fresh and the dressing was really good. The crumb cake was very tasty and fresh. Second meal was breakfasty items that I do not even remember just a few weeks later. It was just okay. I tried the red and white wines and both were definitely decent. But I am not a wine snob. They got us home safely and did not lose our luggage. That and Mercedes were the highlights of my Iberia experience.

We made the grievous error of booking a business class flight from Lisbon to Barcelona through…read moreMadrid. From the first second we arrived at the airport, Iberia continually reached new lows. They did not post a gate for checkin until less than an hour and forty minutes prior to departure. Then the gates they posted did not have any staff. Now 90 minutes from departure another passenger/victim discovered all 200 people were at the wrong check-in desks. We had to run for 5 minutes and were able to get checked in about an hour before the flight. Security was decent and we arrived at the listed gate with about 50 minutes to spare. The fun was only beginning. While standing in the free for all line, they changed the gate so we all ran to the new one. The gate agents had no clue their gate was our flight, and had no interest in helping anyone find out what was going on. Lo and behold, with less than 30 minutes before the scheduled takeoff, Ms. I don't give a crap announced that the original gate was now correct. So run to that gate and stand in another line. They then changed the flight to almost an hour delay so ciao bambino to our connecting flight to Barcelona. After standing in line for another 30 minutes, we finally boarded. Landing in Madrid after the connection had left, we went to the original Barcelona gate and asked the agent what we should do? We obviously interrupted some very important games of solitaire or tinder romances as she disdainfully waved us away to go to the help desk. So, off we went and found 3 non-functional kiosks and not one sentient being, or at least a breathing Iberia representative. We then had the brilliant idea to go to the Iberia business lounge and see if they could help us. We finally ran into someone who at least showed a modicum of interest and helpfulness and were put on standby for a flight in 3 hours. We asked about our luggage catching up to us and we received the very assuring "maybe". 30 minutes later, we both received economy seats 21 rows apart but we did not care. Flight left on time and arrived on schedule. We checked our Apple ID tags and all of our luggage was still in Madrid so off to find the lost luggage desk. After asking a half dozen people and wandering around for 30 minutes, we found it. Shockingly, there was a line of over 20 people waiting to report lost bags. The story is not over yet as we have been waiting for over 45 minutes and are only marginally closer to the two beleaguered agents. Where this nightmare will end is anyone's guess. We fly all the time and can safely say Iberia is the worst airline known to man or woman. From the complete disorganization and unhelpful attitudes, I am shocked they are not extinct. I guess when government runs an airline, there are no consequences for incompetence and they just keep gorging on the public teat. I would rather hitch hike in a two sizes too small speedo with a transparent bag of $100s around my neck than suffer through another Iberia "flight". Y'all have been warned and can only blame yourselves if you are foolish - no, stupid enough - to ever use Iberia. Caveat Emptor cannot be stressed strongly enough.

Lucky we came to the airport 6 hours in advance today, because this company isn't getting another penny from me trying to give international patrons a runaround like this 100% on purpose. Rude.
