Sorry, give it a try again. Should be working.

Haven't tried the Chrome app, but I think we're aiming at different audiences - mine works on mobile and sends alerts, which was the whole original point

Works for me now, thanks Nim
Just shows you how critical FliSea.com is to us, it's my go-to search site for *A search

EXCEPT...... how do I set it to send Alert? did I miss a critical feature? never recalled seeing that... is it "the watchlist"? I think that one never worked for me..I set up a search just now to test

Yep it's the watch list - and it should work fine. Try it on a flight with availability.

Great site! Clean, simple and elegant interface.

One question: Tried setting up a trip on the watchlist that involves a connection and received an error message that the routing appeared invalid. Is this because the watchlist can only create an alert for direct flights? If so, this is somewhat problematic as seat availability on the two legs searched as a single trip (e.g., on ExpertFlyer) may show more or less availability on each leg than if you search each leg separately.

Question Did Aeroplan break this tool

No searches are returning results with this tool now.

Did Aeroplan's "improvements" break the tool?

Sorry - anytime www.aeroplan.com is down (i.e. every day after midnight, and right now), the tool is broken. Should work otherwise.

I find flisea quite random recently also
Often it doesn't work = returns nothing
Often it returns random days, like different 2 or 3 out of 11 days search with every update

Right now, 1:46pm, TPE-YYZ 3Y search returns this
Error: no data was found. There are a few possible reasons:
You specified an airport that could not be found.
You tried performing an ANA search without being logged in (ANA searches are for logged-in users only.
Your ANA username/password are incorrect.
If you are sure all of the above are OK, please PM me on FT and we'll talk. Thanks!
Same error when I change the parameters, like HKG-YYZ, to 20151001, or 1Y

Aeroplan.com IS UP
not sure if their new layout is messing up 3rd party tools

Still not working

Just tried this morning and getting the same error message "no data found". Was looking for a basic YUL -YYZ OW in 2016 and regardless of the days, same message even though AE was working and showing availability. Please help - you have such a great tool !!!!

Well!

That was an interesting ride. It should be fixed now. Sorry about that.

OMG, it's fixed indeed. THANK YOU

It makes things SO MUCH EASIER...

I did my Mini-RTW research the old fashion way all of last week, on good old UA and partial Aeroplan (beyond UA website's 330 days window), it was horrible

FYI

Aeroplan search seems to be not working again - (no routes found) when UA shows options

I tried few 2016 dates and next 2 weeks also, nothing

Thanks Nim
