Did it specifically give you an error message with the Aeroplan call centre phone number? What were you trying to book?

I've had this happen to me booking intra-Europe rewards, but it was never stated as an "error", but I never really tried figuring out whether it was. When I called in, there wasn't any issue with having it paid for and issued (I can't remember if the call centre booking fee was waived though).

Just call in to have the tickets issued and to pay for the taxes.

I'm pretty sure the current iteration of the website launched before Mark was VP of anything at AC.

It would be a good question to ask AP. But I don’t see you getting a response included phrases like scheduled downtime and for the reliability of our website. etc.

That’s a great question. I assume it didn’t ticket until you paid, so you would not currently be flying and would have to fight to get points back.

This was amusing, as there was a delay, so LX's system reacommodated us to a different flight while we were on hold with Aeroplan. Ended up flying LH with LX YQ
But we didn't get it ticketed until about T-75 from the original departure. So that could have been bad.

If I am the owner of sth, I certainly would not allow something almost unusable for nearly two years in to my tenure, even if its a byproduct of the person who owned it before me.

Two years is a long enough time to make significant improvements to the website performance.

The sites need rewriting. From scratch.

There are probably specific areas they could target.

You cant possibly tell me the text fields are as a result of technical debt from ancient code and patches. Yes sure I only kind of know HTML but the back-end mess should not have made it one sec lag for every letter I enter into the field. I cant remember the last time i used a mobile site this bad
