The new flight will provide additional coverage of Africa by the Spanish airline, which already flies to eight African destinations: Casablanca, Tangier and Marrakech (Morocco), Cairo (Egypt), Malabo (Equatorial Guinea), Dakar (Senegal), Johannesburg (South Africa), and Lagos (Nigeria). Under code-sharing it also reaches Nairobi (Kenya), Cape Town, Durban and Port Elizabeth (South Africa), and Agadir, Fez, Oujda, Ouarzate and Laayoune (Morocco).

Flights to Bucharest, Romania, will begin on March 3rd, initially with a frequency of two per week (Saturdays and Sundays), primarily to serve the large Romanian community in Spain.

On weekend days the Bucharest flight will leave Madrid at 09.10 h. and arrive in the Romanian capital at 13.55 h. local time. The return flight will take off at 14.45 h. and land in Madrid at 17.40 h. local time.

The aircraft used on these routes will be Airbus A-319s andA-320s, which Iberia flies to short- and medium-haul destinations in Spain, the EU, and Africa. The modern airliners have the latest technological advances, and are noted for fuel efficiency, low noise, and better customer service.
