    Great video Matthew. That’s a nice long flight to be comfortable on.

      It sure is bud and having a nice comfy lie flat bed definitely helped the time fly by. Very good sleep

    Always appreciate your honest reviews! I’m a STICKLER for a good quality croissant, and I would have been totally disappointed by that breakfast!! Overall though, that was an incredible point redemption you found!!!!!! Especially for that long of a route!

      It certainly was and there's plenty of similar routes offered at similar price points by iberia.

      I did indeed and I got fed up of making content for TH-cam to then not show any of it to anyone. I recently posted a video about a quirky trip I took from the UK to France by rail and sail if you're interested

    Man, you’re so lucky to fly Buisness all the time. I WILL get there at some point 😅 - Even if they didn’t feed me it would just be a dream to have all that ROOM! Would finally be able to sleep like a baby instead of worrying about it I’m going to bother the person next to me. Lol.

      Hehe well what's nice about Iberia is that they're one of the cheapest ways to fly business class from the US to Europe. Off peak you can get from NYC, Chicago, DC or Boston to Madrid for just 34,000 Avios points one way (68K round trip). And of course as I touched on in the video, Avios points are so easy for folks in the US to obtain via various different credit card point currencies...

      I definitely recommend watching Max Miles Points' guide for US folks who want to book Iberia Business Class : th-cam.com/video/EoRm6IzeIpQ/w-d-xo.html

      Tal vez sea así, pero estoy bastante seguro de que alguien que haya pagado mucho dinero por un boleto en clase business y termine harto de eso, probablemente se sentiría un poco decepcionado.

    That’s an amazing STEAL of a deal for that flight - need to remember to check for upgrades via points before I fly more often

    • @MattNav
      @MattNav  ปีที่แล้ว

      Not so much upgrades but rather booking business class outright. The 55,500 point figure I mentioned in the video was for a full blown business class Avios redemption (not an upgrade from economy)

  • @2510adan

    I took iberia in economy, prem economy and business, business class not worth it at all, food presentation is mediocre, prem economy food in other airlines are much better than the business class food on iberia

    • @MattNav

      I'm certainly inclined to agree. Hard product was alright but as you said, the soft product left a lot to be desired

    Great review but ive heard Iberia are pretty bad, no drinks service prior to take off? and that breakfast looks atrocious

    • @MattNav
      @MattNav  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah those two points are correct. No pre departure beverages and the breakfast was indeed borderline inedible

    I'm very sorry but Iberia Business class is 👎 if we compare it to other European companies.

    • @MattNav

      I agree that it's definitely lacking when compared to the competition and could do with both some soft product improvements and changes in the approach to customer service

    Como todo inglés, desacreditando la compañía que salvó BA. Lamentable

    • @MattNav
      @MattNav  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Con el debido respeto, tengo curiosidad de cómo un simple vídeo, en el que solo muestro cómo fue mi experiencia a bordo, puede ser visto como un intento de desacreditar de alguna manera a Iberia? British Airways tampoco es perfecta y tiene sus propios defectos y simplemente muestro las cosas tal como sucedieron y si hay algo que me decepciona, prefiero ser sincero y honesto al respecto.
