If you're not registered for our Preview Program, but want to be, just send me an email to [email protected] along with your FlyerTalk handle and OnePass number.

Thanks as always for your participation, and for your feedback.


Great do the international reward searches work now? GVA-MUC for example? Or CDG-ATH...they've been "down" since the fare class changes.

Aha...from the home page if you just type NYC and move on to the next field, it gives the error and makes you select JFK, LGA, or EWR. However if you type NYC and wait a sec for it to autocomplete and give you NYC all area airports, it works.

It was hinted to me a while back that this release would make it possible to book tickets to BRW via CO.com but it does not seem to work on the preview site.

Is there any word on this functionality?

the preview.continental.com link doesn't seem to work for me, am I missing something?

One of the links in the email was broken, but I was able to get in by typing the link into my browser. I like the interactive route map, but interestingly you can't click from it to a fare quote page.

I wonder when we'll start seeing "UA" rather than "NW" on SE Asia bookings?

Looks like OPFlyer beat me... :)

Looks like they finally fixed the pop up calendar - it loads quite a bit faster. Unfortunately, it doesn't work in FF on OS X. Safari seems to work fine.

OPFlyer Apr 7, 2009 7:25 pm

A few of my reservations are now displaying the Elite Qualification percentage incorrectly.

Same here - a lot of 50% EQMs listed...

I can't for the life of me figure out how they manage to break things that were working in previous releases... :rolleyes:

I see what you are saying but I am still not a fan of that calendar. Why can't they do something SPG.com like? So easy to select dates w/o having to page through so many screens. I'm not a code monkey so perhaps there is reason they do what they do, but for now I still no likey. I will compile my thoughts in a more concise fashion and forward on.

I agree - it's still not quite right but at least it's a lot faster now. Reducing it to a single month is, IMO, a step back.

The calendar doesn't work in FF in Wind:rolleyes:ws either.
