Does that mean, BA will follow suit and eliminate that nice Avios benefit - free UK connections on EU awards? Hopefully not...it was one area where Avios was indeed better than the others.

Having the same flight number for the BCN connections (but needing to get off the plane and change gates) must have been a nightmare for Iberia staff to track down lost passengers.
Now it's clearer, but a side effect is that extra Avios are needed for redemptions.
