Also, I am curious how many is a fair amount (roughly)?
Well not that much - about 35000. However, United make it as difficult as possible for South Africans "to cash those miles" as we are not allowed to make online bookings on United.com. Hopefully the charity I now donated the miles to can make better use of it.
