Flying Iberia for the first time (BA bronze question)

Didn't know whether to post this here or on the BA forum. Husband and I (both BA bronze) are flying to Madrid in a fortnight with Iberia (booked through the Iberia website as it was FAR cheaper than BA).
With bronze on BA we can select seats a week ahead and use Club Europe check in desks. Does that carry over to flying Iberia?
Many thanks.

Just note that seat selection hasn't been working properly for BA elites. You probably won't be magically able to select seats 7 days in advance.

The Iberia App seems to work for me as a workaround though.
enelym1978 and IKDR like this.

I rarely fly IB as well and I'm BA Silver and I was wondering why I couldn't chose my seat for free on the IB website (flight departing July 14). But as pointed out by Craigthemif, it worked perfectly fine with the app. I'm glad I saw this post
