I think you wait to hear what Dan hears from them and then make a decision.
Life isn't about checking the boxes. Nobody cares.

Friends and family members that I have spoken to, suggest that I speak to a lawyer.  What do you think? 
The court of public opinion might get you much better results.

Even then the involvement of a lawyer can be beneficial.

You're wasting your time. As shocking and nerve racking what happened, they are perfectly entiled to deny boarding . No legal matter here what so ever. Forget any chance of compensation other than 600eur per passenger and costs. Fill out the eu form on the eu website and send it to iberia.

Why not claim 3K ILS?

Did they follow the rules for denying boarding? Is there an order they are required to follow?

Did they follow procedures when denying boarding? Are there additional penalties if they don't?

I live in Israel - extremely difficult from foreign airline.
Fill this form - fax to airline. Easy as pie. They settle within one week with this form. Airlines are terrified from Eu court.

What's this whole hype? Why don't we wait for them to come back and then Dan will decide whether or not to do a blog post. Will bring much better results than lawyer or sending in form. You can always higher a lawyer later if need be. They would be more worried of bad PR than a lawyer..

Regardless of whether or not they followed protocol, if they feel this will give them enough bad press, they will most likely deal with it properly. You can be in the right, but if you're threatened to be shown in bad light, it's often worth it to do what it takes to make the problem go away.

I'm on IB right now JFK-MAD. My tickets were JFK-MAD-BUD and MAD-TLV. Im skipping BUD portion and connecting to TLV instead. DP: IB checked my bags to MAD only. They didnt issue me a Boarding Pass for BUD either. They also required me to show return booking even though i was continuing on to TLV. Will report back on how transfer goes in MAD. Have to collect bags and recheck to TLV.
That's worrying, I'm flying IB from JFK to RAK with a 1.20h stop in MAD on one PNR, are you saying they might not check my bags through till RAK.

No chance of rechecking bags in RAK within that timeframe

Are we taking wagers on the likelihood of them having anything (meaningful) by Monday morning?
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

I'm sure CM could offer a spread.
