You’re technically eligible but Amex has tightened up acceptance criteria recently so you’d have to apply and see what the response is. (Also see the separate thread on this for more info). Best done via referral to maximise points.
But bear in mind @zapato1060’s point about the chances of getting 5 seats in premium cabins on IB. You’d have a much better chance on BA.
Thanks will more than likely use BA and search for seats via seatspy
