Oh yes, I forgot about Asiana - which makes you go to a different website based on your departure city (actually, I think QF does too, but it's more annoying on Asiana). I also for the life of me couldn't get HKG to come up as a departure city.

Then there's China Southern, which crashes every single time I try to book a ticket. This is all anecdotal, mind you, but isn't being in an alliance supposed to mean something, like you have a reasonably functional website?
