2015 AA aa.com website / app down, glitch, bug, fix etc. (Consolidated)


• Saturday evenings, AA loads schedules and runs batch processes. This means some scheduled flights might go missing, or your account may show all zeroes, sometimes well into Sunday. It will all come back.

• aa.com troubles? Check by using aktchi's recommended way: http://isup.me- or [U]http://www.isitdown.us, http://www.doj.me[/U{

Or use this direct link - http://downorisitjustme.com/res.php?url=aa.com

If it is just you, try: reload the page, empty your cache, delete one or more cookies, quit and restart the browser, shut down and reboot the computer.

LRD shared: (maybe)... it's a bad cookie. I use the "Remove Cookie for Site" extension. This adds a menu item to your mouse right-click that clears the cookies for just the domain you are viewing. Works ...for example, clearing Citi cookies before submitting a second, same-day AA credit-card application.

• "Flight / Fare selected no longer available; please modify your request" common booking error

Nothing to see here. the SAN - DFW flights will reappear on Sunday.

AA loads schedule changes on Saturday night that results in a) flights being removed (makes it seem like aa is dropping routes) and then b) flights being added.

Sit-and-spin on aa.com. On the Android mobile app, this message:

We're working on our systems. Account access may be unavailable and the site may be slower than usual.
Update: aa.com finally did display a login page. Both aa.com and the mobile site now display this when trying to log in:

Access to your account is unavailable

We're working on our site, and account access is unavailable. Please come back soon to book award travel or manage your account.

Expect this through the weekend, with possible breakthrough periods (or not), and possible recurrent thumps and bumps occasionally from under the hood.

In the meantime, try using your apps.

And: Some of this is discussed in Gary Leff's interview with AA's Suzanne Rubin here.

Changes noticed:

1. Website now also requests you last name when logging in.
Why? In case someone has your account number and password, but not your last name?

2. US Airways flights now show up. When selected, it automatically redirects you to the US Airways site.
3. Something is screwed up. Here is the first part of my listing of reservations, showing a flight on hold until 3/31/15 :
04/17/15 LAX On Request on 03/31/14
Apparently I am a year late in buying my ticket.

Right. With AA + US accounts merger, AA figures there is a nonzero chance that this could happen.

Locked out of AA.Com

I have been locked out of the AA.com website and am unable to change my password. So far neither the AA IT Dept. or Aadvantage has been able to help. Any one else having similar difficulties?

I can't even get to aa.com

The URL redirects to http://validate-sjc.www.aa.com/?v_lo...obileUAFlag=AA and I get a "This webpage is not available"

Yes, same. It was reported last night, by a very competent agent to whom I was speaking, as a "defect" which I believe is a prioritized level of "really bad problem that needs to be fixed."

Did you have a US account that was matched? I think everyone has one of their two accounts locked out permanently.

Assuming you have different usernames/passwords for US and AA, did you try logging in with both sets of credentials?

For the account that survived and was not disabled, you should be able to use one of the following for your username (regardless of the survived account is AA or US):

- AAdvantage number
- USDM number
- User name (might be your e-mail address but could be a non-email name)
