I have not transferred my miles over and don't want to be in a scenario where the waitlist doesnt clear and my miles are stuck if KF.

Thanks

You can never know.

Recent experiences tell me waitlist clears 1-5 days before the flight as Long as its not full. You need to pick less popular flights to increase chances.
