Does anyone know if I would be able to purchase airline tickets online with a u.s address/credit card? I want to book a flight from mad-bcn with Iberia but im not sure if I am able to if I live in the U.S Any info is appreciated = )

If you do it on Iberia USA you can do it but they charge more. If you do it on the Spanish side (Switch to Iberia in Spain at the top-left of the screen) you need to get an e-ticket and list a Spanish address. I use my buddy's but your hotel will do just fine as they don't have anything to send. Let them know, just in case. (That's the type of thing that The Adriano excels in!) I have done it 3 times so far and it works like a charm!

Sorry, I didn't use Iberia.

We recently booked return tickets on line out of South Africa from Madrid to Malaga on Iberia. The price was much better than the quote from our local travel agent. No address was required, only a passport number and the credit card details. We had no hassles at the airports.

You should be able to purchase the tickets online without any problems. Just be forewarned however that some websites don't allow purchase if the the departing city is outside the US. For example, with ORBITZ, if you try to purchase a MAD-BCN ticket you will get the message

We're sorry, we are unable to process your request because the FROM city is outside the U.S

Thanks for the info guys, I shouldnt have any problems then...yea I had tried booking thru U.S sites like travelocity and expedia, but a MAD-BCN ticket one way is $150 but thru the spain sites I can get it for $70 with all taxes, I was curious to know if they would let me book being that I live in the U.S
