I usually just use miles when I take him with us. Caught a break on the one a year ago. We had a 4 hour maintenance delay that they gave us all a few miles for and it reset his date. I didn't even realize that until I asked him to look a couple weeks ago because I was afraid they would expire on his 23rd birthday next month.
Why wouldn't you just book an award ticket and then cancel/redeposit it to have activity on the account?
