Screw you, AC. Just because I couldn't get confirmation of the interview yesterday. $400 for your inability to run a reasonable IT architecture.

Perhaps all the rebooking efforts have crashed the server.

if you knew you were going to get the confirmation today, you could have booked yesterday, you have 24 hours to cancel without penalty

Well you could of book it and cancel within 24hrs...

Added: wwtsang beats me to it

Added again: Second thought, why rewarding bad behavior? Fly with someone else if you can.

Actually the rebooking engine seems to work.

Main page now actually points to it.

Until AC management and unions settle their grievances, why bother going to aircanada.com at all?

Book with another carrier. I did. They won't see my sorry a** on one of their planes until the two sides decide its in the best interest of the company...and their customers...to settle this. Until then....goodbye AC, hello anyone else!

Is it just me or is the entire AC system down? Ive gotten used to the AC website being down, but it seems like AC isnt bookable via third party sites (Expedia etc.) either.

I don't think so. It seems upgrades, rebooking etc. was always working.

BTW, main page has now been redirected to the mobile version.
