Maybe some people would ask, what is Iberia Airlines? I could not barely see their flights. And how to use their Avios? 

Well, Iberia Airlines is one of member airlines in One World Alliance, which makes them also a partner with American Airlines. In this case, you can redeem Iberia’s Avios miles and fly on American Airlines. What’s more, due to the deep partnership between British Airways and Iberia Airlines, your Iberia Avios miles can transfer into British Airways Avios miles at 1:1 rate. 

Talking about how to use the Iberia Avois miles, the most important things is that it can only redeem a round trip flight. So you cannot use your Avois miles for a one-way flight. However, in this case, you can transfer your miles in to British Airways and use BA Avois to book a one way flight. 

If your flight is less than 1000 miles, the Iberia Avois might be your No.1 choice to redeem for a round trip flight on American Airlines. Here is the comparison (round trip):

• 0-600miles: 11000 Iberia Avios; 15000 British Airways Avois; 15000 AAdvantage miles (must within 500miles)
• 601-1000: 12000 Iberia Avios; 15000 British Airways Avois; 25000 AAdvantage miles

Let’s say you want to book a round trip between San Francisco and Los Angeles, you just need 11000 Iberia Avios miles instead of 15000 on American Airlines and British Airways. With the current promotion, your trip just cost you about 7334 Membership Rewards points, which is a pretty sweet deal.
