) SAS website will just return an error message...

It seems there is new LOT website bug: it is not currently possible to enter passport/API information as the drop-down date tool is broken and always returns a message saying "your document is expired" even if it is not. I tried calling LOT but they said they are not allowed to input personal data over the telephone so I will have to check in manually at the airport. (She also said this had been a known problem for some time.) Annoyingly, this means I am likely to get the last pick of the seats as I cannot check in at -24h.
Of course, I could buy a pre-assigned seat ... except that system is also broken; when you attempt to pay it returns a blank error message.
What a shambles!

Do you have a LOT ticketing desk at your local airpot? They might be able to help you as it's in person.

Apart from the usual issues I’ve been experiencing with check-in/seat selection on OU’s operated services to/from SJJ (LO codeshare), I’ve never had problems with API and I was able to check-in (through website, desktop version) for my incoming BEG flight which, needless to say, involves passport data.

P.S.: LO’s web check-in opens at -36.
