For those of you thinking of food when travelling with Iberia, the airline has launched its pre-purchase programme for its Short to Medium Haul passengers in Economy Class.

Iberia calls its new service “Deliverfly”, with will aim to s the customer experience and reduces waste on the aircraft.
The service is available to customers in economy class, booking short- or medium-haul flights, enabling them to purchase from a large range of food options, prepared daily by Iberia’s caterers Do&CO in Madrid.
The Deliveryfly range includes both hot and cold dishes and caters for everyone. Here are the press images (What you get onboard might vary).
Caesar Salad, with Chocolate Mouse and Wine.
BLT with Coke.
Pre-Order before departure
If you want to take advantage of this, Deliverfly is available from the moment of booking a flight and up to 60 minutes before departure for drinks and packaged snacks.
Fresh dishes such as salads, pokes, and sandwiches must be ordered four hours before departure from Madrid, and 24 hours in advance from other cities served by Iberia.
To make a Deliverfly order, customers need only click on “Manage my booking” on the iberia.com home page, giving their flight number, and click again on “Personalise your Flight” where they can make their choices from the Deliverfly menu.
Customers will receive email messages confirming their orders, which will be delivered to their seats by cabin staff during the flight.
Following British Airways in their catering
Iberia’s move follows British Airways move, step-for-step – by moving its Buy-on-board programme to “pre-order in advance”. The idea being that by pre-ordering, the airline only loads what it needs for the flight, as opposed to carrying unsold items back and forth on an aircraft, reducing costs and weight being carried.
For customers, it is something to bear in mind when travelling that they will not be able to get much – if anything onboard.
As usual, plan ahead.
