[My English Castle]

I'm looking for advice!
My DD has over 20,000 miles with American Airlines which will expire, according to their newest policy, at the end of the year.

I spent a good hour last night setting up a points.com account for her, hoping to trade those miles for something since I'm pretty sure we won't fly anywhere the rest of this year. This resulted in massive frustration because despite the tantalizing gift cards etc offered by points.com for her miles, American requires you to have at least 25,000 miles to trade into their system.

Any ideas what I can do with the miles? I don't really want to pay their
nasty fees to gift miles to her or have her gift them to us.
