Not all readers will instantly "know" that the poster has a commercial interest in another web site that bases its content on freebies and uncritically reviewed content from the airlines and credit card companies., etc.

Furthermore, this post was intended to direct readers of Flyertalk to the parent commercial website, hence the link. Not in itself a problem if the commercial interest is openly declared.
