Research. Curiosity. The ability to search old threads.

What was TWA's policy on X...?

Was the old Sheraton program better than the Westin program? What happened to their members when they were transitioned into Starwood Preferred Guest?

Now that several US airlines face the threat of liquidation... what was the experience of other now-defunct programs in similar situations? (e.g. Ansett, Vanguard)

Lots of good content from over time in those forums, even if not everyone finds the need for them.

Just IMHO of course and YMMV..
