Using Avios and CV on Iberia

[slkmum]

We are travelling to Lima next June. Advice needed on booking please….
We want to use our CV. I understand that the Iberia booking window opens before the BA window. Can I book on the outward flight on the Iberia website using a CV and then the return flight separately and then ring BA to get the Avios refund?
Also, I will have to transfer points to Iberia to do this. Can I easily transfer them back to BA without difficulty?
Thank you

Yes you can do this but it all has to be booked via BA, not IB. You’ll have to call BA to book once IB releases the seats. There are a few threads on here about using the CV on IB which would be useful to read.
