14000 miles expiring in 1 week - what to do

I have 14,000 Emirates Skywards points expiring next week.
I also have an Air Mauritius flight (an Emirates partner) the day after these points expire.

Does anyone have any ideas on what I can spend the points on to get good value? Or if I can extend their validity?

Online duty free, football tickets, easyJet, SAA or JetBlue flights (or another partner airline), hotel stays.

Check the Emirates Partners page on their website.

Depends what you wish to get from these miles. I would consider as mentioned by Skywardshunter check out the partner options. Are you in traveling on EK or/and through DXB anytime before the miles run out ?

I've just checked properly and it's my Tier Miles that are expiring, so I doubt there is much I can do about that.

The SkyWards Miles are good for another three years.

Tier miles expire after 12 months from earning. They don't really expire but just fall off your rolling total
