Prologue:

Welcome to the continuation of my trip from MAD to TLS. After arriving from LIS we stayed at the IB Dali lounge and had a good lunch there before our trip.

The IB Dali lounge is located right after the security checkpoint.

Summary:

I have visited the IB Dali lounge before their renovation a few years ago and I can say that I am impressed with the improvements after their latest renovation.

The food has gotten better and there is so much more variety now to please all tastes. I saw staff constantly clearing dishes and maintaining the club clean and in order.

I did not know what to really expect flying IB Express which is the "low cost" arm of the company. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the service was top and the meals catered were satisfying. The crew was attentive and professional at all times which made for a really pleasant trip.
