Hi all,

Need advice if you please

I took part in the Iberia 90k Avios promotion and now my IB account shows -26k Avios - obviously I half expected this but the annoying thing is I’ve found a super cheap offer in biz for going away with my stepson during Easter to bcn.

I need 90 points plus to retain silver so am booking this because it stops in Madrid and the return will net me 120tp I believe.

I want to check things before I book my flight.
1. How do I get these flights to credit the TPs to my BAEC account? Is there a way of entering my BAEC number instead of my IB one when booking on the IB website (IB is the only site offering the fare)

2. Should I avoid at all costs from logging my IB number when I book as I assume I will lose the Avios to my negative balance (not that I care as I just want the TPs!

3. If I can somehow only link my BAEC number will I get the Avios aswell?

4. Will I get all my Silver benefits on both legs outbound and in? (Mad to bcn is IBX)

How would you guys play this booking?

thanks
