The Iberia subsidiary Iberia Express will operate between April and October 2022 on behalf of the sister company from London-Gatwick. Under a wet lease agreement, the Spanish carrier will operate some routes from the UK's second largest airport.

The corresponding contract has already been signed within the group. In Gatwick, British Airways is opening a new subsidiary, BA Euroflyer. This should operate more cost-effectively than the mainline. Apparently there is a lack of staff, because they get help from the Spanish sister company Iberia Express at the start.

The group confirmed the use, but no further details are given as to how many machines will fly from Gatwick on behalf of British Airways. The Spanish union USO, on the other hand, states that there will be four aircraft.
