Can anyone check if they got Iberia as an option from a HHonors invitation?
I can see Iberia in my options but no BA. I joined long time ago with a Hilton Invite but later re-joined with a Priority Club invite - later I called to have 2 accounts combined when IHG had partner activities promotion. They merged the 2, PC stayed and HHonor vanished.
The airlines I have, DL, CO, VS, WN, US, AS, B6, Hawaiian and Etihad, even Frontier - isn't that Frontier no longer exists?
IB has a 0.3x versus other airlines only 0.2x ratio. I do not realize that IB and BA can be transferred like UA/CO. This is cool.
However I cannot find the transfer option in my BAEC account - is this IB/BA transfer option only available to UK-based BAED Members?
