Check Frequent Flier Miles

If you haven't flown much lately but still have frequent flier miles in your account, be warned. In recent years, airlines have placed tighter limits on the lifespan of your hard earned travel miles.

If your balance is zero don't fret, many airlines offer the chance to reinstate expired miles for a fee although policies vary by airline. So, if you're planning to redeem your frequent flier miles to travel this holiday, check with your airline for their specific policy.
