Connecting flights
A boarding pass is issued for each flight/segment separately. Segments operated by other airlines (AA, BA, Finnair, LATAM, Vueling) are checked in on the operator's website, and Iberia redirects you there.
Changes after check-in
Not possible: a boarding pass issued online cannot be cancelled; if the passenger does not show up, they are a no-show.
