Will give that at try. IB seems to be same points if I am going from LA or Boston. Doesn't seem to matter. I tried looking up flights on AA that would then show up on BA but not having much luck . I check the dates, times, make sure they are award flights but not seeing them on BA.

What is IB Metal? (I have linked by BA account to Iberia to share miles so have 80k in BA, 100k in Amex that I can transfer direct, and the remaining in Chase Rewards which I can do as well.)

Love the quick response and advise in here! I just need to be sure before I move all these points and can't bring them back type of thing .
