OLCI not available at 24hrs prior

AC is frustrating me. I am supposed to travel on AC1175/AC3 tomorrow, and I am unable to checkin for the flight. AC.com says checkin is not available at this time yet we are now 23h22m prior to departure of AC1175.

Anyone else have similar issues before on flights?

Getting on the list ASAP for upgrade is going to be a priority for AC3 since the flight is jam packed...

now I'm sitting at 22h45m prior and still unable to checkin...

I think this has posted before. Are you within 24 hours of BOTH flights?

I hit 24hrs before both flights in 45min... I had better be one of the first few to check in for the YVR-NRt flight or there is a flaw and I'll be pissed. The J inventory has been jumping all over the place recently... J3 J2 J3 J0 J3 J0...

Aerolotto may be what it ends up... but if I am not in the top 10 to check in for the flight there will have to be something sorted.

Is anyone else having problems with OLCI today? I'm within the 24-hour mark for both my flights on Sunday, and I'm still getting "Check-in is not available at this time. Please try again later". Tech support says there's no problem though.

I'd really like to waitlist for an upgrade on my second segment (that's 22:45 from now) as early as possible.

No one's had this problem before? Is it possible that it won't let me check-in because it's showing two bookings for my waitlisted upgrade?

I'm at 17h for my flight tomorrow morning and I can't do OLCI.

It could be that I'm only in YYC for the day, and the second flight isn't for another 7-9 hours... Interesting

Not working for me either at 19 hours before my flight. Tried calling tech support but they were completely useless as always.....

Having same issue today, flying tomorrow on AC872. Called tech support and was told that it was because I was connecting with a LH flight in FRA. However, I have done OLCI connecting to SAS before, although tech support claimed that that was not possible.

I have done it before too. On SK, on BD and on LH. However I had problems checking in my son traveling to the US through YUL less than 24 hours before the YUL-BOS flight.

It sounds like when there is a connection, there may be a need for the connection checkin to actually have been opened, or something. Or maybe there are situations in which they get locked (at least for a while)?
