We are on the Optimal Fare booked via IB.com. Iberia shows the Optimal Fare includes a meal, luggage and seat assignment. The ticket says Iberia for LEVEL so Iberia operates the flight for LEVEL hence why I decided to book via Ibera. What the LEVEL website says is irrelevant because I bopoked with Iberia. If this was not an option I would have booked va LEVEL.

SkyScanner showed me that by booking via Iberia vs with a third party was the same for the Basic Fare. As we all know its better to book directly with the airline
to pay the cost to get luggage, seat assignment and meals. I am willing to fork over the $$$ to prepay for these services. I am not so worried about the alcoholic beverages for purchase as I can pay for that its that the service shows Meal and Drinks included unless you book a Basic Fare which I did not do nor want.

On Norwegian you have a Basic and Basic_ Fare with meal, seat assignment and luggage so I am well aware of the fare basis.

Anyone here want to chime in? The Iberia Agent assured me that a meal and drinks would be included.

Here is the Fares Basic and Optimal
