Help with expiring miles
Hello,
My miles will be expiring in January. Is there anything that I can do to prevent them from expiring? I will be going to FCO in June and with that trip I will earn a free ticket. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Any kind of activity will stop the expiration - you don't need to fly or redeem. Rent a car, stay in a hotel etc...
Your easiest/cheapest bet is to buy something from the US Airways Dividend Miles Shopping Mall:

iTunes participates - so even a 99 cent song will make your account safe.
