If it were me, I would buy one way tickets and then use the credits as much as possible. Say you have a $100 and a $200 credit and the ticket you want is $250. You will still have $50 left on one credit or the other that has no expiration date. The ticket you just bought now has a 6 month (if BASIC) or 1 year (if CHOICE or better), It will be from the date you bought it. So if you bought it on 9/26/2025, you must FLY before 3/26/2026 (BASIC) or 9/26/2026 (CHOICE or better).
