Air France depends on how they were earned, if a Hertz rental will work or not.
It will only help for amex or other miles, not expired flown miles.

Had you try to call them?
A friend of mine was able to get them extended with a representative over the phone. You might have more chance with Mauritius call center than Mexico.

Does anyone know how much Best Western points are worth? I'm interested in finding a broker/someone that sells them for a trip to Europe this summer.
