Iberia codeshares
If I book a round trip flight through Iberia as a codeshare (with IB flight number) but the flights are operated by American Airlines, will I still earn American Airlines miles and loyalty points?

I would put my AA number. I’m platinum pro, so 9 pts per dollar?

Yes, you can still earn AA miles on any Iberia flight operated by Iberia or American. You cannot earn AA miles on Iberia flights operated by Level: https://www.aa.com/i18n/travel-info/...nes/iberia.jsp

Yes, you would get AA miles, still based on spend. The earnings should be exactly the same as if you had just booked the same fare through American Airlines.
