Amazing... the problem here is that Iberia had to cut salaries of their employees in order to survive the LCC wave during the economical crisis.
A part o that they created a LCC Iberia Express, opening a big conflict with their pilots.
so now IBX is stuck and salaries stay the same. But being honest we all know that if they don’t do that they will continue in red numbers and being un unprofitable company.
sadly but we all must accept the reality
