The final terms, including the principal amount of each series and the aggregate principal of the Bonds, are expected to be announced soon, the company said.
The net proceeds will be used by IAG for general corporate purposes, including strengthening its balance sheet, helping the company withstand a more prolonged downturn in air travel, and providing it with the operational and strategic flexibility to take advantage of a recovery in air travel demand.
