Iberia increases seat supply to Costa Rica

Reflecting its commitment to growth in the long-haul market, this year Iberia is to increase the number of seats available on its flights between Madrid and San José, in Costa Rica, by 5.5 per cent to more than 234,000. The Spanish airline will operate more flights to the Costa Rican capital using larger aircraft, the A340-600s that have 100 seats more than the aircraft usually operated on the route.

Flights are timed for convenient connections to/from Iberia's 32 destinations in Spain, 40 in the rest of Europe and 11 in Africa and the Middle East. Iberia holds a 43 per cent share of the Europe-Costa Rica market, while the market share in the Business Class comes to 66 per cent. Last year it carried nearly 186,000 passengers on the Madrid-San José route, of whom more than three-fourths made connections to or from other cities in Spain or elsewhere in Europe, most particularly France, Italy, and Germany.
