Last I looked DXB to the Maldives was 140k or so, so that is out............I may just let the miles rot, but it kills me to leave a 100 and change on the table!
I mean if you realllllly are stuck and will let them rot anyways I will gladly adopt them from you to give them another chance at life
I think paying for a Y ticket and using them to upgrade might make the most sense to be honest. Maybe position yourself to DXB cheaply on TK and then book a flight from there, upgrade it with miles?
