Guys, the question has been asked in TB, that since LH and LX have the same FF programme now, should the current forums be merged? There is precedent - KLM/AF and HP/US have both been merged, one as a complete merger, the other eventually in a subforum set-up, where the different airlines, which operate as distinct entities, have their own subforums, with a shared parent forum for discussing the FFP. This does give us a couple of potential models along which to base any merger - or we could let the status quo continue. One thing we are aware of, following those two mergers, is that merging a board is not as simple as just joining them together, and that if the boards have very different cultures, it can be very problematic for the users.
Since you are the users on one of the boards under discussion, we would very much value your input into this question. If you have comments, it's probably best to comment directly into the discussion thread on the TB forum, since not all TB members may read the LH forum. The discussion thread is

Thanks
(and apologies to Kiwi for the OT and cross post, but we did want to let you know this had been raised)
