You cannot log into Avios.com with your BA Executive Club details, or your Iberia Plus details, for example.
There are territorial restrictions on Avios.com membership which are more restrictive than any similar restrictions in the airline FFPs (I am not aware of EI having any such geographical restriction on Gold Circle/Aer Club membership)
You will not be able to log into Avios.com using your Aer Club credentials.
In any case, Aer Club has only provided the membership number so far - no p assword has yet been provided.

EDIT: scrapwhat I wrote earlier. The website does look different today
http://www.avios.com/ie/en_ie/collect
at least for now, it appears that Irish members cannot join Avios.com directly (as is possible in, eg the UK) but must join up via one of the partner programmes.
This links to the following page which links to the enrolment page for Aer Club - which, of course, Aer Lingus have yet to put on line (URL: https://www.aerlingus.com/html/registration.html)

Avios UK Estore offers way more Avios for purchases done through there.
Harrods for example offer 10 Avios for £1 pound spend.

If and when they introduce separate earning rates in Euro remains to be seen.
but, as things stand, Irish customers will earn exactly at the same rate as their UK counterparts.

Strange mix of GC and AerClub links on the EI site (e.g. the feedback bar on the rhs of the GC account sections now references AerClub).
Have two flights in the next 7 days which (if my calculations are correct) will be important for my assumed May 2017 requalification. They are cutting things a little close for comfort....
