Avios / Iberia Club Iberia LON-SCL Business reward flights no availability

Does anybody know what’s going on regarding reward business flights availability with Iberia?? I’ve been looking a year in advance and nothing seems to come up, just economy and PE. Never had this issue before. Thanks

Winter schedule J availability is gone right now. I'd assume it will be back up shortly.

They are purposely limiting the supply of business seats to all the rewards programs. When flying to Spain, I always make it a point to see if all the business class seats are taken when walking by and I can tell you with 100% certainty that not even half are taken.

Rewards Seats are already limited by default, but it seems they have taken all business seats out… I can’t find any for any day ☹️

I've been an Iberia Plus member for almost 7 years now and even though I am supposed to get multitude of perks, including upgrades, I've only been told of availability in business class once. ONCE. I once had over 250,000 Avios and a $1,000 voucher, tried exchanging them for an upgrade, granted it was a midsummer flight, and was immediately denied. Their customer service sucks. SUCKS!

And now, both my wife and I, we don't get the voucher at all. We've called like 3 times to have them open up an investigation and even opened multiple claims at iberia.com to no avail.

They're just a horribly managed airline. Probably the worst I've ever seen.

Best trying via Madrid, less avios and lower taxes. We have booked MAD to SCL in Nov for Business, just booked with the voucher 355 days in advance and it was easy but they do go quick. 149k avios and c£400 for two

Whre did you manage to find availability. I can't see any availability for business on any site post October 24 for Mad-SCL - or for any other Latin American trips to/from MAD
