Continued Problems With continental.com are not CO.O.L
whenever i search by lowest fare for a multiple destination itinerary, i get valid fares. but, if i try to search by schedule many times (and i mean MANY) i get "eService Online could not find any available Economy seats meeting your requirements. You may modify your search criteria, or call 1-800-300-1547 for assistance."

I get this quite a bit as well. It is VERY annoying.

Be sure to do your search both by schedule and by lowest fare. Sometimes you will get better fares, or better flights, searching by flights than you get by "lowest fare." It is a pretty poor program (as are most of the airlines' search engines).

got this little gem today whilst trying to find seats from NYC to HNL:
"Continental.com could not find any available Economy seats meeting your requirements. You may modify your search criteria, or call 1-800-300-1547 for assistance."
that's funny. expedia, orbitz, and travelocity can find seats on CO.

Today I tried to price out an intinerary to Madrid, it came back with a flight to Detroit... it even said "EWR-MAD" but the flights sure weren't.
Then, when I got the flights to show up the price was very high. When I clicked on link it showed a different price with the itinerary.
I think the elf's in Houston are playing with the servers again...
So I don't think its only you.
