Iberia has just announced that it joins the rates of low cost companies as far as the billing price of suitcases is concerned. The first suitcase will now cost 15 euros if the billing is done through the Internet. If it is done at the same airport counter, that price will go up to 25 euros . The second suitcase will cost 75 euros via the Internet and 100 at the airport.
These price changes will be used for routes in Spain, Europe and Israel. For flights to America and the rest of the world, the first suitcase weighing up to 23 kg . will continue to be billed free of charge. Neither will you have to pay the air shuttle rates and those who have an Iberia Platinum, Gold or Silver card will have many facilities.
European Union legislation allows companies to charge for luggage without taking into account the price each passenger already pays for transport. Consumer Associations are already working so that this cost is permanently eliminated.
Finally, say that these changes will be effective for all those tickets issued as of October 20 .
