Iberia Business Madrid Chicago Flight Review is part of the Round The Atlantic Trip Report.
Flying Iberia business is a solid option. Flying it from Madrid to Chicago for 25.5k Avios is the best option.
Seats
Let’s take a look at the seats from a variety of angles. 
Verdict: Solid, comfortable.
Amenities Kit
What’s included? 
Verdict: Basic bag, basic kit.
Champagne
No Krug here. 
Verdict: Basic champagne compared to other flights (see Get Ready to Takeoff: The World’s Best Champagne), but good enough for the passport photo op.
Hors d’oeuvre?
Verdict: Olives, cheese, and meats. Very Spanish of you, thank you.
Food
I’ll have the gazpacho.
Verdict: Cathay Business quality (see Cathay A350 HKG-BKK: I Miss First Already). Not good, not bad.
Dulce
Verdict: No one should complain about ice cream. Solid Sweetness.
Overall
For 25.5k Avios, I’ll commute from Madrid to Chicago.

Great, what’s service like now cause of covid? Haha
2022
I flew MAD-ORD J class last October. Loved it! New A350 was spacious and quiet – J cabin was about 1/3rd filled! Lounge in Madrid excellent. Cabin service very good. Loved the seat and meals. Now with COVID how has the meals and other amenities on Iberia changed? Sad. Looking for an end to this nightmare virus! Thanks for awakening the memories of a great flight.
Flew NYC to Florence connecting through Madrid three times in the past two years in Iberia business class. Round trip New York City to Madrid was 50 or 60 thousand Avios each time, i self booked connecting Madrid to Florence. It was a frequent flyer mile bargain.
However, now, with a mandatory 14 day self quarantine in Spain? Not so much a bargain, who has that kind of time?
Or a place to stay.
