Booked Flight Missing from AA site?
I booked a flight a month ago, received confirmation that it is ticketed.
However, the flight does not appear anywhere on AA's global flight timetable now.
It is flight 1688, departing on Jan. 1st, 2014.
Since I have a short connection to another AA Flight, I don't want to be rebooked last minute.
AA telephone rep insists the web site has lots of glitches, so I should be okay?

The site glitches out on me all the time like this. Oddly, when it happens, the reservation never shows up again on my trips or on the app but if I search manually for the res, it shows up

I have the same issue. I can locate my flight using the record locator but the flight does not appear on my trips list. My flight is also on January 1st.

If I am reading the OP correctly, the problem is not that the rez can't be found but that the flight does not show up in AA's timetable. I was able to locate it; which is why I asked the question about where the OP was looking. No answer yet!

Nope, it is not there. Since I am flying onward to SPI, which only has two flights a day, didn't want to miss my connection.
Okay, it sounds like the website just has glitches, since you found this flight.
Thanks!

Sorry for not replying sooner. I looked at AA timetable but also tried to find the flight just by trying to book a flight LAS to DFW, leaving open all fare options and all times of day on Jan. 1.

I would not be surprised if flights out of LAS are full on Jan 1

LAS-DFW is sold out. DFW-LAS is wide open. Both are AA 1688. Dunno which one the OP is on, but they are both operating.
