Proposal - Crosslinking Forums?

I apologize if this issue has been raised before. I tried searching and couldn't find anything.

I've seen a consistent pattern on FT of destination enquiries in airline fora. I understand the logic; people who live and travel there frequently will have the best info. Still, we have a Travel & Dining section of FT for those issues.

My question (and subsequent proposal) is; is it possible to provide a link in each airline's forum to the relevant Travel forum for that geographic region. E.G. for the US airlines, a link to Destination : United States. For Cathay Pacific, a link to the Hong Kong subforum.

Ideally these would appear as sub-forums at the top of each airline's forum (as in the Hong Kong link). My experience has been that such links get far more attention and usage than stickies. IMO this would drive traffic to the proper fora as well as keeping the airline fora cleaner.
