Best Strategy for Expiring Credits?
I have 8 credits expiring in August and September. I am currently elite, but these were earned before I became elite. I don't want to pay to extend them. Are there any strategies (other than using them before they expire) to save the value?
Thanks
Thanks

I had the same scenario and opted to convert the expiring credits into a voucher. Though no longer usable toward an award ticket, each four-credit voucher is valid for a period of one year, from date of issue, and can be used for an upgrade to BC. Since you are elite, you can do this 48 hours before scheduled departure.

As an elite, you could transfer them for free to someone who could use them before they expire, if that helps.
