silver elite status question

I finally got silver elite status on AC but fly mostly UA or US so was planning on switching my miles over to UA this yr. Will that negate my bonus miles for being elite if I start using my UA ff # instead of my AC one. If so I suppose I'll just stick with AC for another yr. I don't get much benefit from being elite with AC as I live in SEattle but the bonus miles would be nice.

You typically only get the bonus miles if you credit to your elite account.

How much bonus do you get with AC? Does it far outweigh the benefit of E+ if you fly mostly UA metals? Miles vs comfort. It's your call!
