========== Iberia Dali Lounge ==========
Summary:
I have visited the IB Dali lounge before their renovation a few years ago and I can say that I am impressed with the improvements after their latest renovation.The food has gotten better and there is so much more variety now to please all tastes. I saw staff constantly clearing dishes and maintaining the club clean and in order.
I did not know what to really expect flying IB Express which is the "low cost" arm of the company. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the service was top and the meals catered were satisfying. The crew was attentive and professional at all times which made for a really pleasant trip.
