Hi,

New to the frequent flyer programs... lots of points, no idea how to consolidate them in a way to get what I need.

I am trying to get as many of my points possible onto a single plan to use for an international flight. Between them, I have enough to get me somewhere (assuming I buy a few miles as well) but individually, they are fairly useless for the time being.

I don't know which consolidation process to use to utilize them. I don't need hotels or cars, just the flight. I am lost as far as which to consolidate them to, the best way not to loose too many points, etc.

I want to be as savvy as possible and need to fly ASAP.

Here is what I have:
Alaska Airlines 5,866
One Pass (Continental) 22,867
Velocity (Virgin) 1,491
Miles & More (Star Alliance) 13,684

Total - 43,908 miles

Any helpful ideas are more than welcome!!!
