For Victor Moneo, Director of Latin American Sales and Institutional Arrangements, “the renewal of the agreement with IFEMA is of the greatest importance in boosting travel to trade fairs and conventions in our country. Iberia offers 130 destinations in 47 countries throughout the world and the best connectivity with Spain. We hope that the discounts we offer through www.iberia.com encourage even more visitors to attend the huge number of trade fairs and conventions organised every year by IFEMA. For Iberia, it is also very important to be the flagship airline for attending all these events”. 

 

“For IFEMA,” according to Eduardo López-Puertas, “this partnership with Iberia - a benchmark airline both in Spain and internationally - represents a strategic commitment in that it enables us to provide a value-added service for our exhibitors and visitors, and to achieve one of the aims of IFEMA, namely to promote business tourism and revitalise Madrid’s economy”.

 

The agreement between Iberia and IFEMA includes direct discounts on flights with Iberia, Iberia Express and Iberia Regional/Air Nostrum booked through www.iberia.com in order to attend the more than more than 100 trade fairs and conventions organised every year by IFEMA in Spain. A specific promotional code will be available for each trade fair, which will include the discount offered by Iberia.
