20 November, 2024

The airline Iberia Express has announced that it will continue with its shuttle service between the Canaries and Madrid, and this winter will offer 4% more frequencies, i.e. around 350 weekly flights to the archipelago. The low cost carrier will operate up to 10 flights each way between Madrid and Gran Canaria, and another nine between Tenerife and Madrid.

The airline will strengthen, above all, its connections with Lanzarote and Fuerteventura. In Lanzarote, it will have close to 190,000 seats, 8% more than in the 2023/24 winter season and three daily frequencies with Madrid, also 12% more; while in Fuerteventura, in these months it will offer an average of 17 weekly frequencies, 11% more than in 2023, and will roll out over 140,000 seats, i.e. 20% more.

As well as the reinforcement of operations with the Canary Islands, Iberia Express’ commitment to the Balearic Islands, with 650,000 seats, stands out. In total, the airline increased capacity by 3% over last year and will operate in 22 destinations.
