Any Forums to discuss MR travel partners on FT?

I am seeing some good flights from US>India>Singapore and back to US in spring of 2019 and wondering if there is a forum on FT to discuss with others interested in joining on same?

Among other things, MR can stand for Membership Rewards (Amex), Marriott Rewards, Mileage Run, and lots of other things.

Please don't assume that every abbreviation is universally understood, especially in the Information Desk forum. Thanks.

Not a forum to "discuss" that I can see, just a calendar to place your trip for anyone who cares:

http://www.flyertalk.com/flightconnect/

(I'm just guessing at its function; I've never actually used it.)

If there were a place to discuss, it would presumably be in the Community group of forums. That's I think where group trips in the past have been discussed, but I'm not sure where exactly in the Community forums.

There is no forum that I know of which is dedicated to travel buddies for mileage runs but there have been threads in airline forums bringing together people taking advantage of mistake fares and sale fares. Here are some examples.

The BA Viking meet-up thread (aka. ex Norway CW mistake fare)
The BA Bratwurst meet-up thread (aka. ex Germany F mistake fare)
The Satay Fare EDI-PEN-EDI

Not sure which airline or alliance is offering attractive US-India-Singapore fares you mention but it may be worth checking the relevant airline or alliance forum.
