Sorry for bumping this old thread. Just booked Vueling using Iberia Avios (transferred extra from MR so might well just burn it). System is somewhat glitchy.
Iberia will generate its own PNR but yield no result on Vueling. Need to click "check in" on Iberia App (website somewhat crashed) to find out Vueling PNR. Reservation at first shown as only 1 underseat bag, but was able to select both rear and front seats. After doing the online check in via Vueling, reservation was mysteriously updated to have 2 cabin bags, 1 25kg check bag, Priority boarding (boarding pass now shows Group 1) and Fast Security Lanes.
Not sure if it's a glitch or benefit that comes with Iberia. Seems a bit too good to be true but if it's really the case, redeeming some Avios might be useful for those who need 2 bags+1check bag+Fast lanes.
