- Login problems: If you have trouble logging into the Iberia website, type in your number and password by hand instead of using autocomplete. For some people this fixes login issues.
- Partner awards: Many flights on partners will not be available as one-way. You must redeem AA flights as a round trip for example
- Cancellations: Iberia awards on AA cannot be cancelled.

When I phoned them last night, they told me the website works much better with Mozilla Firefox! This may help generally with functionality on the website, but yet to test it myself.

Is anyone else having a problem logging in to their Iberia account during booking?
I made one booking and just added my Iberia Plus number later on in the booking process (without logging in) but I am afraid that will void the promotion.
I keep getting the error (and yes, I am using the correct number and pin):
The combination of the number of Iberia Plus card and the password that you have entered is not correct.
Please check the Iberia Plus entered and reenter the right password. (I599)

Anyway, the terms say "Avios will be added within 10 days of the purchase to the Iberia Plus account of all customers identified as members of the Iberia Plus programme during the purchase process."
Nothing about being logged in there! By providing IB number you are clearly identifying as a member.

I'd be much more worried about, say, an account being closed if you book 10 super cheap fares and don't fly most of them. I've never had an Iberia Avios account before and am tempted to get one, but this may also end in me never having one again from the sound of it.

The cheapest one way that I can find is AGP-MAD for 24,90 Euros. Any other suggestions? I'm trying to find flights around April/May/June 2019 (later dates that Iberia allow to buy tickets).

Booked my 8 single tickets for MAD-PMI-MAD, effectively four return flights. Now I just need to book positioning to Spain.

So let me get this straight. For 250 bucks I can spend a couple of days shuttling between MAD and AGP, boozing the PP lounges out of house and home and picking up 90k Avios, plus what I earn from the flights? As long as I spend them by December 1 (even for a flight up to another 11 months in advance)?

I believe you have to set them up as "Beneficiaries" if they aren't travelling on the same booking as the IB+ member.
