“At Iberia we want to be where our customers are and to let them contact us via their preferred channels.” Says Iberia chief transformation officer, Gabriel Perdiguero.
“WhatsApp is the most popular messaging application in Spain and many other countries, and starting today we will be able to answer questions simply and quickly.”
