Not for everyone. It is free for Passengers travelling in Business, Iberia Club members.

Short answer

Only for some passengers. Passengers travelling in Business and Iberia Club members get free messaging.

Passengers travelling in BusinessFree messaging only
Free messaging for the whole flight. Log in with your seat number and surname as shown in the booking.
Iberia Club membersFree messaging only
Free messaging for the whole flight, including anyone who registers with the programme during the flight. You must know your Iberia Club password before boarding.

You cannot reset an Iberia Club password in the air — check it works before you board or you lose the free tier entirely. A blocked password stays blocked until the flight ends.
Iberia Regional (Air Nostrum) aircraft have no Wi-Fi at all; they offer the Regional Play entertainment platform instead.
Connectivity comes from three different suppliers, so Iberia itself warns the experience differs from flight to flight.
Free messaging is text only — images and files need a paid plan.
