Level
Spain-based long-haul low-cost airline LEVEL connects Barcelona with selected destinations in the Americas using an all-Airbus wide-body fleet.
About Level
LEVEL is a Spanish long-haul low-cost airline launched in 2017 by International Airlines Group, the parent company of Iberia, British Airways, Aer Lingus and Vueling. It began as an airline brand with flights operated through other IAG carriers and has since developed a distinct Spanish operating identity. The Miami Air International legal name and website sometimes associated with the LL code refer to a different, former US airline and not to Spain’s LEVEL.
Barcelona–El Prat Airport is LEVEL’s principal base and the focal point of its scheduled network. The carrier primarily links Barcelona with major cities in North and South America, including New York, Boston, Miami, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Buenos Aires and Santiago. Its route map is deliberately compact, and some services operate seasonally or vary by schedule period, so travellers should confirm availability for their intended dates.
LEVEL operates long-haul flights with Airbus A330 wide-body aircraft. Cabins are generally divided into Economy and Premium Economy, with Premium Economy providing wider seating, additional space and an enhanced service package. The low-cost model means Economy fares can differ substantially in what they include; checked baggage, advance seat selection, meals and other extras may require separate payment depending on the fare bundle selected.
LEVEL is part of International Airlines Group but is not independently listed as a member of the Oneworld alliance. Its loyalty proposition is LEVEL Club, which uses Avios as its reward currency and provides links to the wider IAG loyalty ecosystem. Eligibility to earn or redeem Avios, and any benefits available through partner programmes, can depend on the operating carrier, fare type and booking channel.
LEVEL’s main strength is its ability to offer nonstop transatlantic travel from Barcelona on routes that may otherwise require a connection, often with competitively structured base fares. The trade-off is a relatively small network and fewer daily frequencies than larger full-service airlines. Disruptions can therefore leave fewer same-day alternatives, while the final trip cost may rise once baggage, meals and preferred seating are added.
Good to know
Flying with Level — what to expect
Check Fare Inclusions
LEVEL’s Economy fare options do not all include the same services. Compare checked baggage, meals and seat-selection allowances before choosing the lowest displayed fare.
Barcelona Connections
Barcelona is the centre of LEVEL’s network. If connecting from another flight, allow sufficient time and verify whether baggage will be transferred automatically, particularly on separate tickets.
Economy Meal Options
Food and drinks may not be included with lower Economy fares. Review the booking inclusions and consider ordering any available meal options before departure.
Premium Economy Cabin
Premium Economy offers more space and a broader service package than standard Economy. Exact inclusions can vary, so check the fare conditions rather than relying solely on the cabin name.
Seasonal Schedules
Some LEVEL routes and frequencies change by season. Confirm operating dates carefully before arranging non-refundable accommodation or separate onward travel.
Limited Rebooking Options
LEVEL’s focused fleet and route network can mean fewer replacement departures after disruption. Travel insurance and flexible onward plans can be especially useful.
