How many miles will you lose as Kingfisher goes bust?
Let me start.
Approx 93500 still left in my account. With over 90000 of that from transfers thru the Amex KF First credit card.
Tried desperately over the last few months to book some US domestic DL awards using IT miles. But got nowhere with either website form or the call centre.
Sigh!

Have a look at this

As per my chat with someone from Amex, I was assured Amex won't let it's members down. So they may convert those miles into MR again if earned via kingfisher amex, but I am just speculating yet basis the conversation

(Got the quote thru call center as GDS shows nothing)
And I have the same answer.

~25K before 3 months.. down to less than 1K as of today. I lucked out with multiple domestic redemptions in this period !!
By the way, I'm not a big fan of collecting junk from airline sky shops, but I've never every seen the 'Air Boutique' link on the King Club website work. Was there ever a way to purchase anything from there using King Miles?
