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 
?

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:

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. :-)

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?
