Simply let it be known I have a significant fondness for the OMA/LNK.
To be honest, I just cant sleep tonight. I don't know how much I will post to the forum, but I am very interested in gleaning what knowledge I can before my eyes start to hurt and my brain liquefies.
Anyway, so I did have a pretty BIG question. Where on this whole forum can I find the definitive guide to abbreviations used? I understand IATA/ICAO and state abbreviations, but some of the program abbreviations seem either made up on the spot or refer to some description that I have yet to fathom. For example, why is general membership in a FFP briefly called FO?
Hello and welcome.
As for your specific question about FOs, I'll refer you here:
What is an “FO?”
For other abbreviations, I'll refer you to the
flyertalk glossary
Perhaps I'll see you in OMA soon! Best of luck with all of your travels!
