Having multiple ffp’s with low balances is never a good idea. You never get
enough miles to be of use before they expire. FFP’s are for the long term.
You cannot move miles from one ffp to another ffp.
Some ffp's have one way awards and others do not.
EK are as AS partner. Look on the AS forum on how(& the problems) using AS miles for EK awards. BA is also an AS partner. The AS award chart is limited and has restrictions.
