If you force an update on that booking does it show the new seat?

Thanks ^

I have never had to do that before to get changes to show.

So Amadeus saw sense and the huge number of mutual clients that use it. My Flights App certainly got a lot of good comments from people in the industry and was much talked about over the last week or so. Thank god it is back I would have really been lost without it ^^

In my testing TripCase also picked up changes to schedules for manually added bookings.
Just heard from schofs and this feature is on the horizon! Yay!

Hi guys,
Great news that the app is back up and running! Just tried to refresh my booking and it states 'lookup failed' this is for a BA flight in Nov which was previously showing in the app (iOS). Tried to re add the booking but recieve the same error message.

Any suggestions?

Hi - it's most likely that the Wifi network you're on isn't liking the SSL. If you go into the settings tab of My Flights and turn off SSL, then try again, it should all be well 😊

Cheers,
Chris

I also just wanted to add a huge thank you to everyone for their support, whether that be through emails, messages, reviews, or donations. It's wonderful to know that so many people enjoy what is essentially my hobby. So a big thanks from me ^^^
