I saw those cheap flights with Iberia yesterday, but was concerned that LAS wasn't an option on the Iberia website. However they were available to book via ebookers.

Too late for me, but they were available for our dates at the beginning of May.

I seem to remember flights qualifying for the challenge need to be AA metal not just a codeshare.

No, as long as they have an AA flight number it is OK.

"As of January 2007, only flights marketed by AA (with an AA flight number) are eligible for earning points that count towards the completion of a Challenge. You can still fly on a non-AA metal flight operated by a partner, but you must make sure that you have booked it with an AA codeshare flight number. (Previously, points earned on partner-marketed flights were eligible, but that is no longer the case)."

Hi I booked our flights with Iberia yesterday, I'm sooooo happy.
Travelling out on 21 April, back on 7 May.

We fly from London to LA direct (BA flight) and then from Vegas back to London(via Chicago, AA flight) this cost us £470. :rotfl:
Really happy, those flights if direct from BA are £640!

When I was booking last night there was Vegas..

Guys I just have question about luggage on those shared code flights. Do you know how many bags and what weight can we have with BA and how many with AA?
On Iberia booking it says see BA for luggage. BA is again saying check with Iberia..:cool:

Still cant see LAS on Iberia site. Shd be between La Crosse and Lexington.

BTW I want to see it there as they have the nice 7x7 matrix of dates and prices that VS have.

Has anyone stayed at the Tropicana?
Reviews are very good on Trip Advisor, better than the MGM and cheaper so looking at this hotel for myself for next October now..

MGM is a better hotel IMHO. In fact, most hotels are better than Tropicana......although I do recall that there was a refurb in progress.

I do not think anyone would say Trop is better than the MGM:eek:
You really have to read between the lines on TA especially where Vegas is concerned
