Avios.com month view: find Iberia and BA seats, then book on the airline site.
Avios.com now shows Iberia and British Airways award availability a month at a time, a real step up from the finicky week-by-week searches on both airline sites. Searching Madrid to JFK for two in business class surfaced multiple February days with at least two seats, sometimes on two separate flights. But you can't book through Avios.com - the site only finds availability, then sends you to Iberia.com or BritishAirways.com to book. Taxes and fees are absent, so you'll need the airline site for the total, and BA's surcharge-reduction option via extra Avios remains a separate consideration.
