This time around I noticed video games you can play, there was a kids playground inside, fun am sure for the kiddos & moms hoping to keep the kids from running around. Going through security was quick & easy, you can move around easily as sings are clear & easy to follow for such a busy airport it really runs well, nice & clean & at least everyone we interacted with with nice & friendly.

Stuck in the past airport honestly. Can't get much help here, no kiosks really anywhere, and if…read moreyou're flying delta, the delta staff is ONLY there in the mornings from what we were told. Anywho we missed our flight as VAT line was crazy and we missed by mere minutes. That's okay it's on us, go early early haha because if you don't get a green check in your slips, that line is crazy and it's usually only 1 maybe 2 windows open to get your VAT stamps. So we could only get help via app/text message feature thru delta and was looking at a trip we saw in app the change flights by way of CDG to Boston. The texting took a very long time for responses but we were under impression that the agent was looking into the flight we saw in app that was available and decided to go talk to Air France (as they serviced the first flight) and try to explain the situation to the lady at the counter. She definitely didn't like us lol not sure why but anyways, she scoffed and asked for my passport, then boom handed me a boarding ticket. I asked if my agent had successfully booked my flight already with my previous points she basically threw me the pass and said next, but my GF needed a ticket still so that was purchased after. Then we head in get on the plane and bam, there was another gentlemen's with the exact same name as me on the flight. In our seats well turns out, it was his seat and AF messed up. Ofc, they blamed me for it and the AF manager yelled at me with utter attitude saying I was trying to get a free flight to Paris and stowaway. Yes like I knew there was someone with my exact name on this particular flight .. laughable he made a big scene and tried to humiliate me. The flight captain was actually very kind and understanding. He wrote a note stating there was a big mistake on AF part and it's not our fault. Either way the GF was out a ticket we got kicked off and have to try to recoup the money thru the CC company. Anyways rebooked with another airline and got home after staying another couple days to enjoy more activities. They really need to upgrade information systems, kiosks, and just have more available help to travelers.

This lounge in Barcelona, Spain is enormous and probably the largest I've visited thus far…read more Guests have access to unlimited beer, wine, champagne, soft drinks and juices. There's also sandwiches, pastries, salads, grilled hot dogs and flat bread pizzas, all available on a self-serve basis. Although, the lounge is vast in size the food selections are limited and fell well short of what I've experienced at other lounges. Additionally, the quality and freshness of the food was extremely disappointing. I definitely wouldn't consider this a VIP Lounge but would equate it more to a cafeteria style environment. Sometimes bigger isn't always better, which appears to be the case here.

Aside from being incredibly difficult to find, the hotel within the airport (Terminal 1) is very…read moreconvenient. Unfortunately that's by far its best benefit. Disregard the note on their site that check-in is not 24h - I contacted them to confirm there's always someone at the front desk. Unfortunately they didn't respond to my question about how to find them within the airport. Assuming you're staying in between flights, you'll have to exit and then re-enter security. To find the hotel, go down to the main floor where families meet arrivals and then back through the cafe area to the back wall. To your right (after the Caixa bank) there should be a set of doors and walk way leading to a new building with the Business Center, which is where the hotel is. Our room reeked of unidentifiable food from check-in through the morning, so much so that I was worried it would permeate my hair and clothes. We were also greeted by several flies in our room. There is no duvet, only a sheet. To suffice, we pulled out a nasty blanket from the closet and laid it on the lower half of the bed. The shower door doesn't close and its lining isn't sealed tight so water leaks out, covering the entire bathroom area. The hair dryer overheats and shuts off after ~30 seconds, which means it took 20 minutes (mostly waiting time) to dry my hair. The room is actually not too tiny, even for 2 people. So if you've got a quick turn between flights, it may be worth sucking it up (and forking over the $$$). But if I had to do it again, I'd rearrange our itinerary and stay offsite.

I still don't know...). Let me explain: - Family vacation for 1 week - We reserved the car online (SITE: VIPCARS) and offered a good price, but then when we arrived at the agency counter, in my case 30 minutes after the drop-off time, I was informed that they no longer had my car available, but that they would have to upgrade it and that I would have to pay practically double for another vehicle. Furthermore, they wanted me to take out full coverage insurance at the counters. I had also paid for full insurance on the VIPCARS website and would have to get new insurance again... After my insistence and dissatisfaction, they started telling me they wouldn't rent me any more cars and that I should contact VIPCARS, because they weren't obligated to rent me the car and even thought I was being rude. I contacted VIPCARS by phone, and they told me there was nothing they could do and that I had to figure it out... INCREDIBLE...! Unable to find a solution, I contacted another operator at the airport, SIXT, which did me the favor of getting me a car at the last minute, despite paying €530.

To boot the one and only available at T2 was a Micra that had been scratched and dinged all over.

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.

But when we were on the road, I got a charge alert for 284 euros additional, which caused consternation. Apparently, they ALSO put on an additional 200 € hold for miscellaneous until you return the car undamaged. He did not mention this. The car was filthy outside but clean enough inside . Now the car was a new Volvo SUV and it handled very well and was a pleasure to drive . The return at the airport went well, the rep spoke excellent English and said the extra " hold" of €284 would be removed immediately . He was surprised the first rep did not explain this. So were we!

It's super conveniently located with all the things you need to get some rest between flights. Things like room service and breakfast buffet are available for additional cost while a complimentary shuttle is available. Pro tip, be sure to reserve right away your shuttle ride to the airport as these fill up pretty quick during certain peak times. Overall, would absolutely recommend if you need to sleep near the airport or if you miss a flight or get it canceled like we did. Clean and comfortable facilities and basic room to get a peaceful rest.
