Of course, you used to get about 8 segments per screen and now get 1.5.
As you say, if you use booked you have to tap on each now.

This new app confuses the hell out of me.
Help!
1. Why is the flight information shown different for my "Booked" flights versus what's shown for my "Tracked" flights. Booked only shows me basic flight times and my ticket number. But if I want to know aircraft type, on-board service offering, or flight duration, I have to put my (booked) flight over into the "Tracked" flights. Why????
2. Is there any easy way to move a flight from Booked to Tracked, ie when I'm in the detail for one of my "Booked" flights? I don't see any button to move it over to "Tracked" so I can get the full, useful flight info. Can I do that without having to start from scratch (ie look up the flight # and date) for flights that already appear in my Booked list?
3. Why on earth would they have omitted origin city from the list of flights in the "Booked" list? Not every trip is a simple round-trip ... unless you're a basic vacation traveller. Why, oh why?
4. What on earth were they thinking when they designed this?

If you use tracked, you click the menu top left, Your flights, then tracked you can see whatever you are tracking one one screen and just add flights.
Of course, you used to get about 8 segments per screen and now get 1.5.

Is anybody else getting a new calendar entry for flights every time the app launches or reloads flights "retrieving your information " wheel spinning? That is damn annoying.
