Capacity on flights to Rome will also increase, with some Easter flights operated by widebody aircraft typically used on long-haul routes.
This year Easter also coincides with the start of the summer season for the tourism industry, which begins on 29 March. On that same day, Iberia will launch its daily flight to Newark.

This growth in seat capacity is part of the Flight Plan 2030, the company’s strategic roadmap for the coming years, aimed at positioning the Madrid hub at Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas Airport among Europe’s leading aviation hubs through an investment of €6 billion.
