This is touched on. I am a strong proponent for moving up - not down - with orphan miles. Even if possible, your 10,000+ miles would equal no more than 1-2 thousand miles elsewhere, hardly anything of value that might help your cause. Currently because of an upcoming change in the credit card partners for America West/US Airways, you can get a new Dividend Miles card from Jupiter/Barclays' bank with a 15,000-mile bonus after a first purchase. The wonderful aspect of this idea is that the card is free from any annual fee for the first two years. That 15K plus what you have is a free ticket anywhere in the US on America West/US Airways or United and while that will not likely help you with your current goals, it costs you literally nothing and it's a heck of a lot more valuable to you than 1-2 thousand of DL or AA miles.

As for the AAdvantage program. you might consider applying for an extra AAdvantage card. Through the end of this month (maybe longer) you could get the Business AAdvantage credit card which comes with a 20,000-mile signup bonus. That gets you to 70K with AAdvantage which puts you within only 10,000 miles for two coach class tickets off-peak to Europe. That should be easy to earn. (the first year for this business AA card is free of an annual fee which means i have now gotten you 35,000 total frequent flyer miles and you haven't paid a dime).

As you note, you don't travel a lot and most of your miles and points are earned from partners. It would be a lot longer to earn enough miles for two business class tickets to Europe but there is always that goal in mind. Two of my last three trips to Europe were in Coach and it's not that big a deal since the real reward is the time spent on the other side. After years of thinking i liked London more because of the friendlier language, I now consider Paris more to my liking. So these are things to consider and hope they are of a little help.
