Iberia bans soft, round bags on UK flights, risking fees or rejection due to baggage system risks.
Iberia has introduced new hand luggage rules targeting soft, round, or non-rigid bags like soft holdalls and plastic-wrapped parcels, which may result in fees from €35 to €140 or outright rejection.
The airline says such luggage can disrupt automated baggage systems, citing safety and operational concerns.
The policy affects Iberia’s UK routes from London Heathrow, Gatwick, Manchester, and Edinburgh, including popular holiday destinations like Ibiza and the Canary Islands, with fees applying on top of standard baggage charges.
Passengers may face delays or rejections even if fees are paid, and the changes are especially relevant during peak summer travel.
