Iberia Lounge Access JFK and MAD - AAirpass / BA
I will be flying Iberia in June and am aware that they use the BA Terrace Lounge in terminal 7 at JFK. I am an AAirpass member with American Airlines which gives me access to all of the Admiral Club lounges. Since all 3 of these airlines are OneWorld members I want to know if my AAirpass membership will allow me access to the Iberia/BA lounge in JFK. I assume that this would not have been an issue when Iberia shared the same terminal as AA at JFK (term 8) until recently moving to the BA terminal as I could have just used the Admiral Club.
My ticket on Iberia is booked economy class and I do also hold account memberships with both Iberia and BA. However, neither of them are to the level that grants lounge access.
I am also curious about my lounge privileges in Madrid (MAD) based on the info I have given.
Thank you for any info on this.

Access info regarding a normal Admirals Club membership can be found here:

From the above page, it seems EI and QF are their only other lounge partners so BA is out of the question.

No lounge access at MAD. JFK has an AC outside security in T8 (takes about 5 minutes by airtrain to get from there to T7, so you could stay in the lounge until close to the IB flight time). No lounge access at T7 unfortunately without OW status, etc.
