There is another path espoused on these boards. Basically, it's:

"Here's the envelope with all my accounts, usernames, passwords and pins. Never let them know I'm gone!"

[It's possible to book someone other than the account holder using an account's miles/points.]

By the way, I officially transferred ~200K of my wife's UA miles to my son after she passed, and the only "hurdle" was to provide copies of death certificate and son's ID. And I think there was also an affidavit to sign. It might have included a hold harmless and acknowledgment that there would be no reversing the process. Something like that. But no will or trust was requested.
