Also aware of Level flights direct to BCN but leery of the low cost airlines and may try for premium or first if available. Still weighing options if worth the connection or deal with Level and hope for the best! Thanks in advance!
Pick the shortest connection time that is sold by IB. If you miss the connection, it is on IB to rebook you and there are flights every 20-30min. Also, if you miss the connection because IB's fault, you get 6*600€.

Also you can consider the option of Stopover Hola Madrid

PD: It is highly likely that MAD-BOS next June will be operated by an A321XLR - so only economy or business, no PE.
