How best to use up soon expiring Krisfyler
 

Dear All:
My wife has ~9000 Krisflyer miles that are about to expire. We don't plan to travel with SQ anytime soon. I have gone to the Krisflyer shop but the items that are redeemable with her miles will cost $28 to ship to US. Since we don't like any of these items anyway, we don't feel like spending $28 to get one. Any other idea how to use these miles rather than letting them expire?
Thank you.

You could use to get $80 worth of Scoot vouchers. ($50 voucher + $30 voucher costing 8500 miles), but that may not be terribly useful if based in US. Another option is transferring to Virgin Australia Velocity program at a ratio of 1.35:1 but the catch is that you need have access to an address in Australia or New Zealand to join Velocity.

Thanks for the ideas anyway.
Best

You can always donate the miles to the Singapore Make A Wish foundation.

With 10K points I believe you can redeem a one-way UA flight within the US/Canada but being short a bit the charitable donation would be something I would consider.

Excellent suggestion!
Thank you.

Is there anything I can do with < 1,000 miles?
 

I've got 983 KrisFlyer miles expiring at the end of April. It seems that the minimum mount I can do anything with is 1,000 miles. Is there anything else that I can do with these miles?

anything from the shop? using miles to offset airline fares don't seem worth it.
