Trying to keep miles
I have about 15k miles and don't have any Frontier trips planned for the near future. They will expire in June. I am looking for ways other than flying to extend existing miles. Other airlines have signing up for a newletter, etc. as options. What options do I have with Frontier?
Sorry if this was addressed before. I did a quick search and didn't see anything.
Thx

Beware, however, that you may have to monitor the posting of earned miles from partners to your account; you can't always assume that the posting will occur automatically...the process may need your follow-up.

Don't wait too long because partner activity often takes weeks to post. Now if you do partner activity in mid-June and your account is wiped out prior to those miles posting, they should reinstate it because you had activity before expiration -- they just didn't post it fast enough. But if the activity posts before the expiration, you save the hassle of contacting them and explaining the issue.

At points.com, you can transfer 10 (yes, just 10!) Continental miles to 3 (yes, just 3, but that's enough for "activity") Frontier miles.
I doubt you'll miss 10 Continental miles...
