Is there a way to display only certain forums that I'm interested in instead of seeing them all? For example, only those airlines and hotels that I would actually use.

When visiting I usually just click on New Posts and then scroll through to those areas I would find useful or interesting.

Go to a forum, perhaps by using the dropdown menu labeled Forum Jump at the bottom of a thread (such as this one). (Another way is to click on the Forums button at the top of the FlyerTalk home page.) Once at the forum of interest, find a dropdown menu labeled Forum Tools (in the same blue-background line as Threads in Forum: [forum name]. From that Forum Tools dropdown menu, choose Subscribe to This Forum.

This assumes you are not using the mobile skin and something else that eludes me at the moment. In other words, I assume you are using FlyerTalk the way that I do. Good luck, and come back and ask me to elaborate on what I've left out. If you're like me, you'll want to open the forum of interest in a new tab, so you can refer to these instructions.

Serpens offers good guidance. Once you do that, you can see all your forum subscriptions here: https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/subs...=editforumsubs

And also in MyFlyerTalk below the subscribed threads list.

+1 this is the page I use as my "entry point" to FT on a desktop browser. It doesn't work as well for mobile skin IMO however, so on my smartphone I use the Subscriptions view (which shows threads by default; you can click a link to show subscribed forums, but the resulting list, whether you use the usercp or the subscriptions link, does not create an obvious bold/unbold distinction between forums with/without new posts the way the desktop version does)
