The whole website is like it's in a third world country. Oh... wait....

Try to sign in to check your flight or maybe change your seat. You can't use you're Confirmation number. You have to use your Ticket Number. Who makes a note of their ticket number when they make a reservation. I had to go back through a few months of emails to find the original UA receipt. Was actually surprised that the TK site accepted a UA ticket number.

The site is certainlly not very intuitive or user friendly.
