Don't worry, spafax.com will fix the leaderboard. Maybe even by Dec 11.
EYW 2016 leaderboard worked perfectly, without a single hitch, from September 2016 until they wiped the data to make way for this promo.

Sadly all bonus miles are awarded in 2018. Was hoping they would give the winners the option of delaying posting miles till post-Aeroplan era in mid 2020

I read it as 31-50 that being 20 people will get 1,000 eUps. They could tier that so person 31 gets more than person 50 of course...

I assume said eUps would be valid to Feb 2019 and ability to use them will depend on your status.

Up now on Safari

Page designers need to stop using grey font on light grey background.

CONTRAST!

It has been 'registering' for about 10 minutes

I think the site has been hugged to death

Sadly the website is bouncing and registration is failing

Air Canada needs to get a new IT department and stop outsourcing to CGI or whoever they use...

Altitude "earn your wings" website issues

Anyone try setting up an account for the new "Altitude Earn Your Wings" promotion? Just got an email this morning about a new way to earn bonus miles, etc. Takes you to a page where you have to register (i.e. set up an account), yet i'm stuck on the page where you enter a username, password etc. keeps saying there's an error with the info i'm entering, but it doesn't say WHAT is wrong, and everything I've entered matches their criteria.

Anyone have success with registering for this new promo?

ok so it's not just me. yeah hard to believe AC would launch a site and not first load / performance test it (assuming it's the traffic 'load' causing these issues). I PRESUME they actually tested the functionality and registering DID work in a test environment, but maybe that's too big of a presumption???

I'm in the same situation as you, which I guess is a step up from being frozen on "registering"...

wrt actual content, wow, there are a bunch of changes from the last two times. Lots more points for small airports, especially in the east and the Caribbean, and harder to earn badges out west.
