Quick update on this request:
HTTPS / SSL is now available on Flyertalk. It is not yet made a default choice for all users, but those that wish to use the secure version may do so by manually requesting the forum via https instead of http.
Global mandatory rollout requires additional time due to obvious use-cases where we need to rebuild several components needed to support SSL.
But again - those that would like to use the SSL version, may do so via manually altering the URL (once) to HTTPS instead of HTTP.
For example:
FlyerTalk Website security
Thank you
