Thanks to some excellent advice over on the Spain trip-planning thread, I'm looking to use Avios for intra-Spain flights, e.g., MAD-SVQ or MAD-AGP, and AGP-BCN. Also interested in DUB-MAD and BCN-Paris (obvsiously these are not intra-Spain).
I'm seeing 2 seats available in Y on many flights, but we need 5 seats. What's the chance I could book two seats on a given flight, and then hope that Iberia (or Aer Lingus) repopulates the award availability with 2 more (and then 1 more) seat soon thereafter? I don't think I have the constitution to book half of us now and wait until the last minute to book the others in our group.
Thanks in advance for your perspectives.
