Hi all,
I was looking to confirm flights and found this on the Iberia web site:
http://www.iberia.com/OneToOne/gateway_es.jsp I have also cut and pasted the words below:
Madrid-Barajas. Mandatory travel documents for passengers
May 28th , 2003
Urgent Notice
Iberia would like to inform its clients that Spanish Authorities have decided to remove temporarily Madrid-Barajas Airpor from the Schengen Group.
Therefore from May 28th to June 4th, 23:00 p.m., during the meeting of the NATO Ministers in Madrid and for security reasons, all passengers coming from any European Union country must hold FULL TRAVEL DOCUMENTS (PASSPORTS OR ID�s) (THE SCHENGEN COUNTRIES AFFECTED ARE GERMANY, AUSTRIA, BELGIUM, DENMARK, FINLAND, FRANCE, GREECE, ITALY, LUXEMBURG, THE NETHERLANDS, NORWAY, PORTUGAL, AND SWEDEN). Otherwise they will not be permitted on board.
