Many foreign airline miles, however, expire (often after 3 years or so).
Also, airlines have different definitions of 'activity' so it is best to check with each individual airline.

So far, Alaska Airlines miles do not expire. Alaska has a large number of airline partners. I rarely fly with them, yet it is my favorite miles program.

It states "If no mileage from any source is posted to a WorldPerks member's account for three consecutive years, the account is subject to termination, including forfeiture of all accrued mileage."
To me, this is similar to the rules of the other airlines.

and they don't (seem to) expire. (Some of my family has had them sitting around for 14 years.)

EFREM is correct about Delta Skymiles. There are also Delta FF miles which are listed separately on the skymiles statement,

i love seeing airlines (ie AA) advertise the fact that their FF program miles "DON'T expire as long as you fly 36 months"....in other words they DO EXPIRE. there should be some sort of law restricting misleading and illogical statements like that in advertising
