Iberia is Spain's flag carrier and a reasonable choice for families on intercontinental routes. Bassinets are available for infants up to about 8 months, kids' meals are served, and the Flyaway Kids Bed is accepted at crew discretion. Car seats must carry EASA certification, which limits options for families bringing US-only approved seats. The lap infant fee of 10 to 30 percent varies by route, making it moderately expensive for infants.
