Skywards & Velocity points

[nuthq]

Hi everyone,

First time poster here, so be gentle!

I have around 23,000 Skywards points that are due to expire November 2009 as well as 17,000 Velocity points. My question is this - Is there any way to move my Skywards points to my Velocity account in order to book a non-flight award?

I am not in a position to fly anywhere any time soon (apart from a London trip in November on Malaysia) and would quite like to pool the points and get a gift card from Velocity.

Is this possible? If not, what the bloody hell can I use all these expiring Skywards points for?!!

Thanks,
Will

In the end of things I just donated the leftover useless points to the Emirates Kids Foundation thingy.

As generous as I am (!!) I am not sure I want to donate all my miles to a kids foundation...

Any other ideas?!

maybe something that's points + pay?

not being a member am not sure if skywards offer this.

I think with EK you can also use your points for some sort of raffle??

And a lot < 20,000 as well. Why not try bidding on a memorable Membership Rewards number (lol).
