Continental.com down (6/2/03)?
 

I've been trying to access the website for more than an hour but keep getting the following error message (when searching for fares or accessing reservations):

Is everybody else getting the same message, or have I been banned http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif?

It's working for me. Just logged in for the 3rd time today.

Still not working for me... I think I've been banned http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif!

Also functioning normally for me.

You're not crazy or having PC problems. I think the other responders were just going to the first page at www.continental.com, which is working fine. But try to pull up a flight schedule and you'll get the following reply:

Work Hard, Fly Right

I got the same error message when trying to look up an award ticket... like there was going to be a standard award availibility anyway...

Welcome to FlyerTalk, CO Lurker! It's nice to know others are experience similar problems as me... for a minute, I thought I had been banned! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif

Not until you're within days of the departure and there's a $$$. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif

Login and was able to book an award ticket. I've been working on Continental.com for the past 2 hours. You know, it takes time to find a standard award.

It also seems to be down for hotel and car reservations. C.O.O.L. specials etc. all seem to be fine - it's just anything that requires a reservation.

And thank you for the welcome. I'm a longtime lurker who finally joined up. I have a feeling this is the start of a beautiful friendship. Or something to that effect. :-)

Work Hard, Fly Right

Welcome aboard, Lurker. Still down at 9:15 PM on the Left Coast.

Well, I was able to login to continental.com and access my OnePass account. However, once the My Account page displayed, I scrolled down to the Current Reservations link (lower left) and clicked an itinerary that I had purchased this past weekend. When the View Current Reservation screen displayed I again scrolled to the bottom to check the OnePass Mileage Details which summarizes the miles to be accrued. Now this is where it gets screwy.

The first flight (LAX-EWR) and the last flight (IAH-LAX) are displaying as 500 miles EACH. There are four other segments in between these two, which are showing the appropriate mileage to be accrued.

Is this happening to anyone else?
