Maybe one for Oliver2002.
I had a very strange experience earlier this week at ZRH - I've never had this before:
- The day before the flight, online was throwing an error when trying to check-in for the flight, both app and website, so I could not retrieve my boarding pass
- On the day of the flight, I went to ZRH early and at the check-in counter, the agent was also unable to check me in and sent me to ticketing
- The ticket desk said there was nothing wrong with the booking / ticket and sent me to the specialist service desk
- The service desk agent was also unable to check me in on the booking initially
- It took several agents over an hour to resolve the issue
- He spent a long time on the phone with ADC carrier support / Altea support
- He told me it was something to do with IAPP overrides?
- He eventually contacted the station manager and got permission to override something in the system
- He also told me that they had never seen anything like this before.
Sounds like an LH IT special - it was the most inconvenient one for me yet.
