I have over 47K Spirit miles. I maintain a Spirit Master Card and pay the $59 every year since their policy is to let the miles expire unless you continue to charge something on the card every month.
I have no plan to use the miles in the foreseeable future.
My options as I see them are:
- Keep using the card for a small purchase monthly and keep paying the fee until the time comes when hopefully I will want to use the miles
- Cancel the card and lose the miles
Can anybody here come up with any better ideas?
Thanks.

No. It's a good plan for Spirit, unfortunately... Or try to redeem those miles for whatever they let you:mad:

Cut bait. Kill the card and let the miles go if you've got no plans to use them.
Can they be transferred?

You can book a flight for someone else with those miles.... that's the only other option I know of.
No transfers and nothing else to redeem them for but Spirit flights.
You and 8 of your friends could book a RT flight off peak on weird days to whatever destination they have left in the incredibly small selection of award seats... :D
