Moving BA Avios to Iberia (with additional complications)

Hi all,

I currently share a BA Avios household account with my wife. In total we have 200,000 BA Avios, of which 130,000 are from my account and 70,000 are from her account.

We would like to book flights for two other people on Iberia. I have an active Iberia Plus account but she does not. We also both have Avios accounts. Is there anyway for us to move all 200,000 of our BA Avios into my Iberia Plus account?

The only method that I think might work is for us to transfer our points to Avios, set up an Avios household account, dissolve the Avios household account and apportion all the points to me, transfer all the points to my Iberia Plus account and then make the booking from there (I think I'm right in saying that I can make bookings for others using Iberia). Is this doable? What it be possible to set up an Avios household account and then dissolve it the next day? I know with BA it would require a six month wait. Is there a simpler way of doing this that I'm missing?

Thanks in advance for your help.
