I don't understand this at all. Redemption information is available online on alaskaair.com. Did you look there? If you're that unhappy with AS, go ahead and go to another airline and good luck, you'll find that they may be even tougher about expired miles. (Clearly you don't fly much any more if you have had 2 years of no activity in your account.)
