What to do with TK miles and smiles points?
Few weeks ago I did a JFK-IST flight and collected a bunch of TK miles.
I don't fly TK at all, this was due to some exceptional circumstances. I cannot foresee any flights with TK in the future before my points expire.
Do you have any advice what I can do with my TK miles before they expire?
I'd like to transfer it to somewhere more useful.
I am based in the UK and a member of all major hotel programs and avios etc.
Thanks.

Next time I suggest you decide in advance on a main ffp for *A and Skyteam - preferably one without hard expiry and with top-up options - so that when trips come up unexpectedly you don't just earn orphaned miles on whatever airline you're flying.
Depending on how many miles you have, you could top up with Marriott points and get to a one-way reward somewhere...
