Can anyone check if they got Iberia as an option from a HHonors invitation?
excellent point about iberia, I completely forgot about that way of transffering, and yes, you do get iberia via the hilton honors invite. thanks for reminding me.
edit - well that's sneaky !, it showed me iberia when I followed the link, then after I had registered and confirmed, most of the transfer options were removed and I was just left with Hilton, Delta and one other.
edit 2 - and now iberia seems to have re-appeared !, very strange.
