Normally you can't consolidate them, but when the KLM deal finallly happens
(do you know when that is due) they will probably send you forms to
consolidate AF and KLM.

The only option I know to put FF miles together is to put them into Hilton
points and back to FF miles - but you lose 90% !!! Do you have enough in
Emirates to be worth worrying about ? Enough to auction on ebay ? You may
have to put them in an envelope and auction the envelope :-)

That's a strategy for eBay's scrutiny. It won't help if the airline
decides that the miles were obtained in violation of the rules...

[ The "envelope" scheme is not one that any court would believe,
otherwise we'd all be paid in "envelopes": a month's work in exchange
for an envelope: value 2p; tax due: none. ]
