SkyMiles Account History Site down?

Does anyone know if the SkyMiles Account History page is in an outage? I have been trying to bring it up since last night, and still today I am getting the same error:

Account History
Error: System Unavailable
We're sorry, but the system is currently unavailable. Please try again later, or call Delta's automated telephone system at 1-800-325-3999. (Outside the U.S., the U.S. Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, The Bahamas and Canada, call 404-714-2300.)

For assistance, please send us an E-mail message.

Hmmm... maybe Air France's after-flight processes are as bad as their airport processes and somehow gummed me up with Delta...

I,too, am able to access my account information - both late last evening and about 45 minutes ago.

It's still down for me... I called Delta half an hour or so ago, and the gentleman at web site support (who amazingly answered in one ring, without going through any automated system, wow!) told me that the system actually *was* down. I replied "since Sunday??" and he didn't seem phased.

It seems odd that some people can access their accounts while others can't. Although, I would assume with the large size of the database (there are what, 35 million SkyMiles members?) that it is partitioned, with different clusters of servers handling different groups of accounts. Sounds like we just might be the unlucky ones.

But I still find it really odd that they would tolerate their systems being down for going on 48 hours now.

I find it a little curious myself. Yesterday I WAS able to access my account as noted above but have not been able to do so all morning today (ie Tuesday, 06/29/04). So much for the partition theory!!

I've experienced the same pattern. Not sure if that invalidates the partition theory - maybe it's a rolling blackout. I'm sure I've just revealed my ignorance of things infotechnical.

It is intermittent and does indeed seem to be down for some of us.

I have been unable to access my history file since early May. I haved called and e-mailed everybody but the President to no avail.They are aware of the problem but apparently can't fix it
I quit trying a few weeks ago. Maybe if enough people complain something will be done.

Well this is just insane. I have a friend who works at DL but he's in logistics, but maybe he can raise a little more hell than I can. It's very bizzare, since until now, I've never had any issues with delta.com.

Still down at 22:37 London time.

Still down, as of 6/29/04, 4:42pm CST.

Maybe their servers were hit by one of those everyday MS virii.
