Can you promote here?

The rules prohibit promoting your own product here. You can still be genuinely useful in comments (which builds the account standing every other community checks), but any promotional post or link is likely to be removed and can earn a community ban.

From the rules · If requesting itinerary/price help you must present at least two options; clickbait/ads/self-promotion/surveys are explicitly removed.

Links

Links are prohibited in posts or comments. Name things in plain text; interested readers will search.

What this community rewards

Dominant post formats: question, guide, discussion

Headline = a concise, specific travel question (e.g., “NYC→LHR Apr 10–17 — best award routing?”). Write in first person when asking; keep posts short–medium with concrete trip details (origins, dates, budget, airlines) and show your research. If asking about fares/itineraries, present at least two options. Tone: factual and polite. Upvoted: actionable advice, clear guides, real experience; removed: ads, self-promo, surveys, vague prediction posts.

Arriving in the local format matters: cross-posting the same text everywhere reads as tourist instantly. The wider method is in the Reddit playbook.

Classified mechanically from the community's published rules and recent top posts, last checked July 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/flights's rules page before posting anything that matters.

Thread Otter checks this before every send

These profiles power the product: promo-banned communities never receive a promotional draft, drafts arrive in the local format, and a fact-check gate plus human pacing protect the account doing the talking.
