points to miles - KrisFlyer or FlyingReturns
I have about 35K points on Amex Gold and about 25K points on Citi Premier Miles. I have a KrisFlyer Silver with about 70K Miles and dont have any points on AI Flying Returns. If i were to convert these 60K points, should i put them on KrisFlyer or AI? What level would i reach on AI? How long do these points remain before they expire on either AI or Kris?

you won't reach any level with ai by transferring these miles....miles expire 13 quarters after you earn them so that's a little over 3 years....

Credit Card transfer miles aren't counted as tier miles hence you will get no status with either of the airline by transferring them. The miles expire after 13 quarters of inactivity on AI and 18 months of inactivity on Krisflyer.
The transfer totally depends on your flying pattern and redemption preferences.
