We’re all in the same boat, or plane if you will. Link a card that will earn miles on spend; pick a partner hotel and link the two and go spend a weekend to earn some miles and keep your account current. Look at all the ways to add miles without flying. Or have you called to see if they are extending status? I haven’t flown United in well over 3 years and they have not dropped my status. You’re a consultant. You can figure it out.

You can also buy a future ticket with points and cancel it. Any activity on points will renew the points expiry date

Can you share it with family ?

Can't you buy the lowest option of miles? I know that counts as "activity" for American Airlines

Just used a meaningful amount of AMEX points for the first time to buy flights to Greece for my wife and I. Emirates business class both ways for 2 people, 290k pts total or 145k each way for 2 tickets. Plus another 30k to get us round trip domestic connecting flights bringing the total to 320 points. This is on the 777 which isn’t the best business class product out there, but I’ve never flown international outside of coach and think it will still be worthwhile. Think this is an OK redemption?

Can someone walk me through the Do's and Don't's of AA miles? I think they're a joke.

I have 65k miles and I could only pay for a one-way ticket from PHX-JFK. I had to book 1 leg with miles and the 1 with cash, but booking the other leg in cash was about 80% of the round trip in cash.

My mom has 12k miles that expire soon, transferring them would cost me $450. I can pay for a round trip with that cash but I can only pay for a trip to my kitchen with those 12k miles.

What am I doing wrong? 😂
