Good to know
The official Amex Spain page lists 12 partners: 6 airline (Air Europa SUMA, Iberia, BA, Flying Blue, SAS, Delta), 4 hotel (Hilton, Marriott, Meliá, Radisson) and 2 other (Paradores, Renfe). Unlike most of Europe, Avios (Iberia and BA) and Flying Blue are 1:1. Transfers are final; you need a registered partner account first. No transfer fee is mentioned. The page says Emirates Skywards transfers are suspended 'hasta nuevo aviso' (until further notice) because of Emirates maintenance, and Emirates isn't in the partner list; its Spanish ratio could not be confirmed. Cathay, Qatar, Singapore and Accor don't appear on the Spanish page. No Spain-specific blog confirmation was found, so this list relies on the official page alone (no ratio-change history for 2025-2026 was confirmed). A 30% Avios bonus reported to end 27 Sep 2026 comes from US sources and is not confirmed for Spain.
Recently removed or suspended
- Emirates Skywards. Suspended rather than formally removed: the official Spain page says transfers are unavailable 'hasta nuevo aviso' because of Emirates maintenance, and gives no date or ratio. Treat as unavailable.
