Dec. 5 — With all the problems United Airlines is experiencing, what should frequent flier mileage holders do with their United miles?

Travel attorney, Al Anolik, suggests Mileage Plus members use their miles — and fast.

The safest way to go is to use the miles to purchase trips on different airlines. United has 13 partners in its Star Alliance, such as Mexicana.

Or transfer your miles over to Hilton Honors Points to get free hotel rooms.

If you're feeling generous give them away to charity. If you do that you'll get a tax write-off.
