Avios/Tier Point on IB flight operated by Vueling?
Hi

I want to book FCO-VIE return Flight (IB5956, IB5857).
This is operated by Vueling.

Will I get Avios/Tier points in my BA account ?

Thanks

Unfortunately not. You'll have to credit to Iberia Plus to get Avios.

Thanks for the super quick reply..I was afraid this will be the answer..

I'm 20 tier points short of silver status...
I believe you can't move tier points from IB to BA? true?

To be clear on this, IB numbered flights on Vueling do not count for tier points and the 4 segments/year for Silver, but IB numbered flights on Air Nostrum (in my case, BIO-MAD-OPO-MAD-AGP) do?

Yes, Air Nostrum works fine.
