Help!! Need miles for a ticket
I need to buy an urgent ticket from Miami or FLL to Bogota Colombia, Can I get miles from someone to get a fare price?

Is this the right place to do that------->NO
Is such a transaction risky for all parties involved------->Yes
Is such a transaction permited by program rules--------NO
By the way it looks like a revenue ticket is around $600 dollars leaving tomorrow, and coming back a week later. A round trip on either UA or CO is 40,000 miles + Taxes so you would need to get someone to sell you miles a 1c a mile to save $150 dollars, and when you here about people selling miles it is generally at around 1.5c a mile, which would bring your cost above a revenue ticket with the taxes, So best thing you can do is just bight the bullet and pay the $600 for a ticket.
