Iberia and Airbus have signed a contract by which the Spanish airline will outfit its A320neo fleet with newly-launched L Bins. Thanks to the new bins, which allow vertical loading of carry-on roller bags, Iberia will further improve its passengers’ inflight experience, increasing by 60% the hand baggage capacity.
“We are proud to announce this contract with Airbus, one of our key partners, because with the new Airbus L Bins, we will be able to improve our customers’ experience,” said Alberto Garcia, Fleet Planning Director, Iberia. “The new luggage compartments increase the hand luggage capacity on our A320neo fleet by 60%. In addition, this improvement also translates into faster boarding and deplaning, which also makes it easier for us to continue to meet our strict punctuality targets and provide excellent service to our customers.”
Charbel Youzkatli, Head of Commercial Services Europe, Airbus, commented: “The L Bins are a game-changer, enhancing passengers’ experience and streamlining cabin crew workflow. We are very happy to see the L Bin being part of Iberia’s unwavering quest of excellence and punctuality.”
