Reward Availability in IB
 
Hi FTers!
I am struggling to find IB availability. I used to use ExpertFlyer long back but stopped working and the IB website is rubbish... at least for me eveytime I try "pay with avios" the result is an error and no calendar view to search for other days.
How do you find availability in IB? other website?

I hit the 500k avios and want to book something...

What route are you trying to book? If there is, in fact, award availability, it might be easier to book through BA after transferring your Avios from IB to BA. And it might be cheaper to book via QR or AY. (BA Avios can be transferred to either of those programs.)

My avios are actually in my BA account.
Looking for IB operated routes from North America to Madrid (normally), this is why I was searching in IB website.

A couple of years back I used ExpertFlyer... is there any other search engine or program you guys know?

For IB trans-Atlantic flights with your BA Avios, search for reward flights at ba.com or on the BA app. You cannot redeem BA Avios at the Iberia website without first transferring your Avios from BA to IB, and there is no benefit in doing so for the particular redemption you have in mind.
