Tried it on IE8 and safari on iPhone~~~

I just tried on Firefox on Mac OS. Seems to be working fine for me.

If there are no availability, then the online redemptions goes back to the redemption home page.
It should really give a statement of 'No Availability', rather than going back to the beginning of the process.

Seems to have a bug in the system. My friend clocked up 35.75 sector miles as GO member and it shows that next tier is diamond at 40 sector miles and remaining 4.25 sector miles to get promoted to diamond?

Both the miles and sector requirements are wrong...

Or CX is running a secret promotion from GO to DM....

Oh yes, I searched CTS on dates when there is no direct flight. It goes back to the redemption search homepage again WITHOUT any prompt showing no flight that day.:td::td::td:

No one would expect there is no prompt and go straight back to where one had started. It just happens after the new look. It is such a silly overlook in web page design :confused: :confused: :confused: and I hope CX would fix this soon.

This was an issue with the old website as well. Simply logout (or quit the browser entirely), and try again. If you have searched for anything else (e.g. a revenue flight) before searching for the redemption one, something doesn't get reset in their code and screws everything up.

Can't book at the moment.... site is crashing...

My biggest criticism of the site is that everything is rendered in a tiny tiny font!!

I have not been able to see the manage my booking section even once since the refresh. (Even if I input the record locator and name). The mileage section appears OK so logging in the account works.

The error says:

Due to internal system error, you are unable to proceed further. Please close the current browser and try again. Should this problem persist, please contact our Online Services Support.

I tried different browsers and 2 computers.

Don't they test this?

The old website would tell you "no flight is available on the date you selected".

It never tells you which date it is though, but it is now totally gone and no prompt is given. The website just direct you back to the search page without telling anything.

Bad design!!!

I was able to "Manage My Booking" just a few minutes ago, and it worked fine. Maybe because I'm in Asia???
