There is already an initiative in place for this. You can donate your miles for charity (list of charities to choose from). One of the charities I love is donating miles to bring fallen soldiers home, or pay for them to go home to visit their families. Yi should research online before you get too happy about coming up with an 'original' idea

Exactly!

I like the idea!

I know there are charities you can donate miles to, but we don't know how they use the miles/points... This just a thought I had.

You can do that through the United/American websites. There is an option called 'DONATE miles'. You can either transfer it to someone else, or donate it for charity !

This is a thing already. Sooo many ways to donate.

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? 😂

We were going to go on a hike and had a hotel booked for a night. Texted him 5 min before arrival and when i was there to pick him up. He hopped in the shower. I got annoyed that he did that because i communicated beforehand to be ready. He didnt like that and said that he thinks that i think my time is more important than his... he canceled the trip and we are not speaking because of this incident... Am i crazy or something?

Do folks have trusted/valuable resources for researching luxury family travel with young kids? I don’t care the cost, I want to know what is most convenient and nice for my family. Feel like generally most resources are geared to either a) families on a budget (I don’t care which hotel is best bang for buck w/mid breakfast) or b) couples / adults only travelers. Do folks just stick to true five star hotel concierges for help? Do folks just book luxury tours like A&K? How do folks research?
