how to keep points from expiry
 
Part of my Skywards points will expire in March. Will a purchase of points or a transfer from SPG extend the expiry date? Advise please, thanks!

I don't think there is anything you can do..

I used some points that were set to expire in JAN '10.. I'm worried now.. since I want to change the flight.. that if the points get refunded to my skywards account I'll lose them.

Sorry, no. As per the terms and conditions of the Skywards program, validity of Miles cannot be extended.

You could always gift a free flight or upgrade to a collegue or friend on the understanding they do the same back for you in the future.

Or you could donate them, assuming that the miles are too few for a redemption
