There are a few non-stop connections (e.g. Madrid – New York, Madrid – Chicago) offered by Iberia.

Often, the more affordable options involve one or two layovers. However, the connecting flights are typically in economy class. Instead of enduring a six-hour economy class flight from New York to San Francisco, flights via London are a recommended choice for just a small additional cost.

On some routes (BCN – JFK, BCN – BOS, BCN – LAX), you will encounter non-stop connections operated by LEVEL. This budget airline is not a member of Oneworld and comes with various disadvantages (onboard service, miles, etc.). Nevertheless, for those seeking a more comfortable seat than Economy, it might still be worth considering.

Information & Tips for USA

The United States offers a wide range of tourist sights, from national parks like Yellowstone and the Grand Canyon to cities such as New York, Los Angeles, and Washington, D.C. The currency is the U.S. dollar (USD), and card payments are widely accepted. Prices vary by region but can be high in major cities, especially for accommodation and dining. Weather differs greatly across the country—winters can be harsh in the north, while the south often stays mild; summers are generally hot and humid in many areas.

The U.S. transport infrastructure is highly car-dependent, especially outside major cities. Urban centres like New York, Chicago, and San Francisco have functional public transit, but many other cities have limited options. Between cities, domestic flights are common for long distances, while intercity buses and Amtrak trains cover some routes, though often with slower speeds and less frequency compared to other countries. Without a car, getting around can be inconvenient in many parts of the country.
