I want to issue a cousin of mine a ticket to fly from Uruguay to Greece in July, but I need 70K miles. I have 50K in my account right now, and my parents have 13K a piece.

I called up United to ask some questions about the awards tickets and such, and I also asked if I could transfer my parent's miles to my account in order to issue the ticket.

The guy told me that it was impossible to do.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can combine/use these miles to get this ticket issued?
