1. No, primarily for the reasons Spiff mentions ("The two real salient points are that they have little to no FF program and little discussion in their current and correct homes"). As I posted up thread, there aren't an overwhelming # of posts re: them in the Other North & South American Frequent Flyer Programs and the Other European Frequent Flyer Programs, which is where the posts currently reside so I don't see a need to create a new forum for them.

2. If someone wants to ask a LCC question in the Budget Travel forum, then I don't have a problem w/ that. It's certainly related to budget travel. However, most discussions take place in the ON&SAFF & OEFF forums.

Cheers.
