Bummer, no more changing an individual flight after the fact. That was a great feature. Guess for them it was a bug...
I tried something a few times and then it reverted back to the old site that allowed segment by segment to change. Can't recall how I did that though... just want to say it's out there somewhere....

Not sure if this is the correct thread to post this on, but it used to be that first class upgrade space would open at 3 hours before the flight if there were seats left, even if there were people on the upgrade list. In the past I know that people could check-in again and get the upgrade even if they weren't first on the list. Does anyone know if this is still happening or has it been fixed? When search I see many flights that takeoff within 3 hours that are showing upgrade space online and when I go to the flight there is a waitlist of people waiting and it still shows 2 first class seats available.

What you are describing has been patched but they created another bug when doing so. None of this stuff should be discussed on a public board though.

Another inconsistent partner award pricing bug?
Two prices do not jibe.

All of my corporate issued tickets are fine when originally issued but if i do same day change it no longer recognizes my elite status, puts me in the back of bus and doesnt put me on the upgrade list. Is this a new benefit for corporate travelers 🤦‍♀️. Luckily just between pacNW and SoCal so i survived. But it is hilarious, no chocolate bar either😂. I am on with them (AS) now, approaching 40 min and they are baffled. I cannot be the only one, this is the fourth flight in a row where i did same day and this happened.

New unified HA/AS app released on time today as an update to the Alaska app via AppStore.

Not much has changed but it's awesome that the apps are now fully integrated. Well done AS!

Im just impressed they made their deadline. When they told me back in feb they would have it out by end of March I wasnt very confident Although they did have to cut some features to make the deadline.

Yeah, functionality looks to be identical to the previous AS app. I guess that means some additional new features are in the works which we can now look forward to...

One thing I'd like to see is rendering all the content natively in the app rather than being redirected to a web page which requires re-validation of login credentials. Not a big deal but a slight annoyance.

Also under Upcoming trips, partner flights don't show the logo of the partner airline (AA, CX, DE, EI, etc.), but they do on the website. Again not a big deal, but visual consistency is pleasing to the eye.

Flight Status page is getting ahead of itself

< rant about the process follows, not particularly relevant to thread topic >
I know full well that AS is trying to sell F before giving it away to Atmos members with elite status

Im seeing $530 for the in-app upgrade (not a bargain, just the fare differential); we are currently 3 and 4 of 28; 1 and 2 have the same first three letters of surname so are presumably a couple

the assigned jet is a 16F 738, and the seat map hasnt changed (F16, PC7, Main 29) since ~T-120 save for one Main seat disappearing ~T-72 and one PC ~T-36

Congress isnt in session, so there wont be any last-minute gotta-be-at-the-Capitol govt travelers on either flight

AS4 seat map is F9 even if they cleared the first four on the list *and* all seven AS4 pax in F SDCd to AS2, there would *still* be five available seats for sale or gate upgrades

Agreed. This was my biggest complaint during the closed beta.
