The rebooking engine has hit new levels of broken. 
I have a EWR-LAX flight, Y fare, for next week. When I try to change it, even when I select "Full Fare" it gives me a refundable H.
Then, I decided I to upgrade it and then try to change it to see what happens. Now it will only price full A irrelevant of the option I choose and there is even R availability.
Sadly, the helpdesk was useless and decided to just stop listening.

I booked RT flights from EWR-SAT and just noticed that the Complimentary Elite Upgrade settings are missing from the reservation. I have flights booked for later in the year and the setting appears on those reservations. Should I call CO regarding this or do you think that it's okay and just not showing? I haven't encountered this before.
Thanks in advance for any advice.

When I search for a Friday-Sunday DEN-IAH RT in the fall (Oct-Nov), I see at least one inbound choice (IAH-DEN) available only in FC despite all buckets being available. Case in point: DEN-IAH CO1098 Fri 11-7 books in "W", but IAH-DEN CO35 will only book in "F" (yes, "F")
Flight: CO35
Aircraft: Boeing 737-800
Fare Class: First (F)
Meal: Dinner
No Special Meal Offered.
View Seats
Here are the KVS data for IAH-DEN CO nonstops for 11-9-2008:
[KVS Availability Tool 3.2.0/Platinum - Apollo: ITN/US-ARL]
The other four flights will book into "W" or "I".
On other dates (e.g., 11-16), CO35 does not even show up despite KVS indicating availability all the way out to "X9".

It would seem the gremlins are at it again. Right now, I can't seem to login to co.com or the preview site. My cookies were also wiped so it didn't remember me either.

I seem to be unable to make reservations online - been having this problem for the last month or so - I am signed into my onepass account at the time. I get as far as the "Traveller Information" page, but any time I press the "Continue" or "Seat Selector" page I get returned immediately to "Traveller Information" with the message "We could not process your request. Please see the message below and make revisions." in red - but there is no message below and nothing I do seems to allow me to continue past this page.....can anyone help......

Why does my text message notices from CO.com only work when I re-check the # in my profile on co.com? Does it need love from me, or is anyone else having this problem? It continues now for the umpteenth month....

Not sure if this was reported upthread, but while searching upgrade award seats for China, I found this notice posted on the summary page before you go to the purchase -
This doesn't apply to Platinum members - it's not as much an error, but the code should be cleaned up to remove the warning from Elite customers who do not pay the fees, in order to avoid customer confusion.
Note: Should you decide not to travel, a redeposit fee will apply in order to have the miles returned to your OnePass account.

Truly cosmetic. But, it would appear that the CSS's need to be adjusted to look "right" on Firefox. On the preview site, the main page is off-centered and the "My Account page" has issues with wrapping text and resizing things (such as the elite status meter).

After signin in on the new co.com mobile site and viewing your account and reservations, the "Full HTML Version" link brings you back to the Mobile version.

This has been a known problem for some time, not sure why CO refues to fix it.
