Iberia strengthens its Latin American offensive with more flights to Peru and Venezuela
The winter season begins on October 28, but Iberia will begin in September to reinforce its commitment to Latin America, with an increase in frequencies to Peru and Venezuela.
Specifically, the airline will increase to 13 the weekly frequencies it operates between Madrid and Lima, which means that this destination will have two daily flights, except on Sundays.
Similarly, Iberia will have two more flights with the Venezuelan capital, up to five a week.
In the five months of the winter season until March 30, 2024, the airline will show a 14% growth between Europe and Latin America, exceeding 300 weekly flights for the first time, which will allow it to reinforce its leadership position on both sides of the Atlantic and connect customers in Spain and Europe with more than 100 destinations in Latin America.
A bigger bet on the Brazilian market
Another of the actions taken by the airline to reinforce its commitment in Latin America is the increase in capacity to Rio de Janeiro, as from November it will have one more flight, reaching four frequencies a week.

Thus, Brazil, which together with Ecuador is one of the two countries in Latin America to which Iberia offers two destinations, will have 11 weekly frequencies, adding the daily flight between Sao Paulo and Madrid, and the four frequencies between Rio de Janeiro and the capital of Spain.
Mexico City, with 21 weekly frequencies, is Iberia’s destination in Latin America with the greatest capacity, a figure that the company will also match with three daily flights in Bogota throughout the winter season.
Likewise, Argentina will have 14 weekly frequencies, while Chile recovers its full pre-pandemic capacity, with 10 frequencies. Ecuador will also have 10 weekly frequencies, as Quito will have a daily flight, in addition to the three weekly frequencies with Guayaquil.
In the Caribbean, the Dominican Republic will have an increase during the winter season of up to nine weekly frequencies in January and 10 in February. Puerto Rico will also increase its connectivity with Spain with up to five weekly flights, and will reach daily flights at the beginning of 2024. The connection to Havana will have three weekly frequencies.
In Central America, the routes to Guatemala, El Salvador, Costa Rica and Panama, as well as Uruguay, will have a daily flight.
