My wife has under 50 AGR points. I think they might expire at anytime since her account shows no paid travel since 8/12/2008. I did transfer 1,000 of her points to my account this year so her account shows only that activity for 2011. Now I'm thinking of buying 10,000 points with the 3,000 point bonus for her before the end of the year (I've previously purchased my 10,000 points earlier this year). I could then share 2,000 points back to her account (or give her 2,000 of my Continental miles) and have enough points for a 1 zone roomette. Do you think it's possible she'd get the purchased points only to have all the points lost? Since it takes 'up to 3 weeks' for AGR points to show, even if she did a short trip before the 31st, could her points still expire? Any thoughts on this?
