Acronyms?

As a new user on Flyertalk, i read the posts and see all these "J's, y's, c's, etc." whizzing over my head. Is it possible to sticky a post somewhere detailing what everything is?

Let me also add my welcome to FT!

In addition to the FT glossary referenced above, some of the airline and hotel forums have their own glossaries like this one in the Delta Forum. Its specific to the airline and, in some cases, specific to the individual posters in a forum who sometimes develop their own abbreviations and lingo.

Check at the top of each forum for any sticky threads that may contain a glossary or ask a forum moderator for assistance.

Here's a link to our acronym list on the BA board, which is undoubtedly the best board on FT!!
