If you bother to look back, it has been that way since I started this thread over a year and a half ago.

As someone who is always anxious to give new forums a shot, I believe it is critical that we be willing to act when a forum has failed to serve a legitimate purpose for FlyerTalkers, as this one has.
I have to agree with Kokonutz. I fail to see what useful purpose Travel News serves. It seems to be a content-free forum. I endorse closing the forum.
