Overweight Baggage - Iberia OW Emerald
Hey folks,
I've got to fly IB MAD-JFK with a connection on AA down to EZE. I've got some rather heavy auto parts, gears and the like, which i need to bring down to a truck in south america.
My question is two fold. One what are IB's rules for OW elites (emerald in my case) for overweight bags? I see IB's site has listings for their own elites, allowing overweight bags as an elite benefit, but it's not clear if it applies to OW elites.
My second question is about the auto parts. Does IB accept checked parts? They're mostly heavy metal things, totally i think 38kg, but i can split them up in to a couple bags. It's some housing, gears, ball bearings, rubber seals, etc... There's a minimal amount of oil, but nothing flowing or which could accumulate, it's been drained for transport.
I'm flying in economy on a Y ticket.
