I was able to log in to the Android app once a few days ago, but generally still telling me there are "technical issues" or whatever the phrase is.

I’m logged into the AE app on iOS for whatever that’s worth. Seems to be a tad inconsistent.

Working in the industry so to speak, I blame management incompetence more than the coding peons. But who knows I could be wrong.

Of course if your coding team is that poor, steps should be taken.

I see the words “flight status tool” and I laugh. I really shouldn't though.

I just tried using my iOS app just now and it works fine. If you still can't login, try uninstalling the app. Then reinstall and try again.

Just tried that. No luck.

Maybe you're locked out of your account? I tried another iOS device just now, and I am also able to login and even search for flights. No issues at all for me.

Seems unlikely, considering multiple people are havng the issue on the AE apps, but website works fine.

EDIT: To be clear, talking about the Aeroplan app, not the Air Canada app.

If the team is that poor, I still blame management.

Given what I know and who I've talked to, it would not surprise me if they're mostly waiting on the 1A switch before really replacing everything. They have a lot of very competent people working in relevant departments.

Which means nothing if we cannot access the portals such as the Aeroplan App, Air Canada App, the website off and on and ticket error messages.

Would their morning status meetings not go something like this..."Are there any outages we need to address urgently?". Yes, we are of numerous ones.

But alas, crickets.

On a somewhat positive side of all of these website and app errors, I received a call back from AC Accounting in YWG apologizing for the multiple charges to my American Express and Visa for the same-day change fee that would not process properly online back in December. It was a sincere apology, but these errors should not be happening in the first place.

Nope - I had no problems accessing Aeroplan.com on web. Just the app.

And it's working again now. Let's see how long it lasts.

EDIT: App stopped working again.

Aeroplan App still down.

Air Canada App unable to show flight status with...'Loading search results". Awesome.

AC 1944 delayed nearly 2 hours so far, and...AC 1945 showing on-time. Right. As if that will happen.

Trying to make a new mixed class booking and finally got an agent on the line after 2 hours.

To AC Management: don't leave a non-bypassable message on the call centre lines that states you can make changes on the website because I cannot. Grrr.

The cancel notification robot, and friend, the rebooking robot, are asleep.

I called in (now on hold) to change my YHZ-YYZ CX to a later flight tomorrow to get a full meeting in on the ground. SE agent tells DFW-YYZ, AC 7662 is canceled, and indeed, EF is showing that. And indeed, that the inbound (from YYZ) was canceled.

I'd blame Egencia but I did get the subscription notifications lat night.

This DFW commute is going to kill me. 12 hours (20 hours) longer away a week is not insignificant.
