Not Able to Purchase Tickets for 2 Days?
I've been trying to make four different reservations since Saturday and every time I hit the final "purchase" button I get the infamous error messages. I realize I can call, but really I'd rather do it online.

Anyone else having this problem?

I've tried purchasing with both ticketless funds and credit card, but no luck!

It's now well documented that just because you get the 'infamous error message' doesn't necessarily mean that your reservation didn't actually go through! I've personally experienced this - website gives you the error message, but check your future itineraries (after about a half hour), and lo and behold, the reservation WAS made!

johnslloyd, no luck on the reservations showing up despite the error messages. It just doesn't work.
