My seat selection is still intact so far for a flight next year ($1k fare). For those that say check in is available now, where do you see that? In the app and on the website, they both say "Check in not available... Flights open for check in 24 hours before..."

Yeah, that‘s the problem, it should be available.

Why would it be a problem? Firstly, it's irrelevant and secondly the check-in is not always available in advance. I have 3 other active bookings and only one has it enabled. I can't check-in for my LHR-MAD or MAD-LHR (separate one-way bookings directly with IB) but I can check-in for my ZRH-MAD. I had very similar experience during covid too. Very random. Sometimes I was able to check-in but the boarding pass didn't work at the gate so had to go back to get my covid docs checked and the boarding pass "enabled", other times no online check-in at all. So I wouldn't personally read into this at all.

"Please bear in that mind check-in for flights to/from Cuba, El Salvador, United States, United Kingdom, Guatemala, Mexico, Puerto Rico and China only opens 24 hours before the departure of your flight."

So it probably means that IB is blocking the possibility of online check-in for these tickets.

For those in the most recent wave of cancellations (LA tickets in the last week or so), have you been in touch with any lawyers in Chile re: Recurso?

Just today got the email for one of the ~$1k USD Iberia direct tickets that it must be downgraded to Y plus 25% voucher, or fully refunded.
I understand the Chilean court case, etc and am just catching up... any recourse I have here or should I just cancel and try to get them to refund the rest of my stuff? (1 night hotel in Santiago that I booked a month after booking the flight, which seems reasonable?)
