Broken Thread Link in AAdvantage forum? (Fixed)
If you search (via threadloom) for Flight Credit Wallet, you'll find a result for an actual thread:
AA introduces Flight Credit Wallet (Aug 2020)
But if you click on the search result, you get a broken link error.
The same link is posted here in the Wiki:
GUIDE to Trip Credit, Flight Credit, Travel Voucher, Gift Card, Refund
And it also reports as broken.
"Invalid Thread specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator
If you received this message immediately after posting a new thread, there's a good chance your message was flagged as spam and will be looked at by our moderator team."
Any idea why the entire thread is no longer accessible?

It's accessible for me, although looks like a forum moderator deleted the first post, so that may be why you are receiving the error. If you clear your cache, do you still have the problem?

The Search engine does the same thing.
Clearing cache has no effect.
Looks like it's trying to go to (the wiki link)
AA introduces Flight Credit Wallet (Aug 2020)
I've even tried clicking the actual individual posts (via the threadloom search results) and each and every one gets the same invalid thread specified error message.
Threadloom will error (just some examples):
AA introduces Flight Credit Wallet (Aug 2020)
and
AA introduces Flight Credit Wallet (Aug 2020)
(the above is post #9, so not the first one).

A little sleuthing suggests a moderator deleted the first post in the thread in error. Deleting the first post deletes the thread.
The first post (and therefore the thread) have been restored. Thank you for your report.
