"When we stopped flying to Johannesburg we said we would resume our flights on this route as soon as possible," recalled Iberia's chairman and CEO Luis Gallego. "Now we've come back to stay, with a new brand image and new, more fuel-efficient aircraft, equipped with new cabins and much improved customer service."
The flight schedule is not only good to fly to Madrid, but also to fly on to more than 100 destinations in Iberia's network, including Barcelona, London, Lisbon, Porto, Havana, New York, Chicago, Miami, Milan, Rome, Berlin, Frankfurt, Geneva and Zurich. On board of these flights, Iberia will also carry freight, such as perishable goods, mainly fish from South Africa.
To mark the occasion of Iberia's resumption of services to South Africa, the airline has launched a special flight offer to fly to Madrid starting at R6,910 (including taxes and surcharges). Flights can already be booked at travel agencies, and iberia.com was activated on 16 December in South Africa. This is Iberia's 11th route linking Africa to Spain. The other destinations are Luanda, Algiers, Oran, Accra, Malabo, Casablanca, Marrakech, Tangier, Lagos, and Dakar.
