Is my understanding correct, and were we expecting this? I'd assumed all Partner redemptions were peak.
Yes, it was my understanding based on the information on ba.com that all partner redemptions, even if involving only one partner, would be charged at peak rates.

Are partner airlines other than Iberia also introducing peak and off-peak travel periods?
No. If you would like to redeem Avios to fly with British Airways airline partners you will need to use peak Avios pricing all year round. There will be no off-peak pricing available for reward flights with our airline partners except for Iberia.
Are your airline partners also putting up their Avios prices?
Reward flights with our airline partners will be charged at British Airways' peak period Avios prices all year round. This means that reward flight bookings with partners may cost more Avios in premium cabins and on some premium economy routes.
