Welcome to Part 7 of my Japan trip!
Time to head home with Iberia again. After a very cheap ticket to Tokyo I was offered a dirt cheap upgrade fare for Business Class! Given it was a 14-hour flight I went for it. This is also my longest flight recorded to today.

Total score: 79%
It was fun to try out Iberia’s longhaul Business Class! Even if it was a bit undercatered the quality of the food and wine was very good and the crew was very engaging as well and the IFE was very clear as well! Sure Iberia isn’t up to Asian or Middle Eastern standards but I really can’t complain about them and definate would consider to fly them again.

Welcome to Part 8 of my Japan trip! A part of this cheap fare was that I had to return to Frankfurt instead of Brussels! Good news, Upon arrival in Madrid I had the chance to upgrade to Business class as well for no price at all

Total score: 84%
After trying out IB’s longhaul service I also got to sample IB shorthaul Business class! As usual it started off with the very nice and spacious design of Madrid Barajas airport terminal 4. I was prettty impressed by the choice of 2 hot meals (unlike Air Europa…. ) Crew was very friendly as well. In overall it was a nice flight with Iberia in Business class!
