Will, there be a devalue after this promotion
I doubt anyone has this answer but from my point of view, During this period of no flying and with so many points that are being refunded due to Covid-19. It is sure to some devaluation coming up as all these KrisFlyers miles are considered as debt or liabilities to the airline.
Conclusion
KrisFlyers miles a valid for 3 years from the month it is credited into your account. I will surely take up this promotion with the rewards points that are going to expire soon.
