can't search same day avios

I wanted to search and book a same day IB Avios ticket on AA metal.

However, I cannot enter today as a day available to search, as if today has already passed.

Is there a workaround, or is this another IB Avios quirk that I had yet to learn

Muchas Gracias

I'm guessing the problem is it bases it on the current time in Spain.

Also be aware you have to do round trip on OW partners and they are non refundable.

I also wouldn't really count on IB+ issuing an e-ticket for a partner award in a prompt manner...

Do you have a BAEC account to book from?

Yes, but the whole idea was to save avios vs what BAEC would charge

yes it was a partner booking and yes roundtrip

Gracias

I've had the same problem, but if you call up they can book same day for you over the phone.
