Seat map previews on the AC website load noticeably faster on my desktop than they did before, especially when checking J. It's almost instant.

I don't have eUpgrades or status levels to worry about like all of you do, so my wish list isn't as pressing. I would love for AC to be able to generate mobile boarding passes for a ticket that starts with an AC flight and then has a connection to another *A carrier. I'm not sure if Amadeus is the common IT system across the entire *A now, but hopefully mobile boarding passes will be possible at some point in the future among an itinerary of airlines that do share it as a platform.

Apparently the initial reports from the test organization (code named "FlyerTalk") were that "Pretty much nothing on the website is working for me", so they had to take it down again.

All I get is a little red plane flying round and round in circles when I try to check my booking for Friday night!

Just tried that too.

When I call up a booking, it says:
We are temporarily unable to process your request. Please try again later. (err-7)

And when I check the status of an eupgrade on that booking

I must be lucky. I can login, I can pull up bookings (including Aeroplan bookings) and I can access my eUP account (but don't have flights to upgrade so cannot test that feature). I don't need to check-in for a flight, book a new flight or purchase a FP yet.

But not being able to access any of these features is definitely a problem.
Hopefully these issues will be resolved shortly.

I have a reward flight coming up this weekend. I couldn't find it via the web site (my bookings didn't show it, and the PNR search failed) ... but the mobile app found the new PNR, and with that I was able to find it on the web site, and change the seats on the reservation ok. So ... not a terrible disaster so far.

I've just completed an itinerary change and it worked as expected. Re-ticketing and refund of fare difference was instantaneous.

Edit: Never mind, bookings are now duplicated after the change. Will see what happens tomorrow.

Trying to check in on the app for a flight tomorrow morning, using the new booking reference number. "system currently unavailable."

Do you suppose this will be fixed before tomorrow morning?

Check in on or before Nov 21st, use the old PNR.

Some people reported upthread that they could now see their Aeroplan bookings under My Bookings. I can't see mine.

I also notice that I've been kicked out of one seat I had eUpgraded to and reassigned to another J seat. Just a minor irritant.
