Things are definitely slow. I am not receiving any time out messages so I have assumed that the FT servers themselves are not the direct problem. Other sites that I know are US-hosted are also slower than normal. Just not quite as slow as FT for some reason.
fyi, the post page took a good 2-3 minutes to appear whereas normally it would take 2-3 seconds.

Agree with Scott - had several Europeans and very experienced FT'ers tell me they simply could not access FT several hours back. I could access it 100% normally here when I checked. Strange.

It's working fine today, but yesterday, later in the day and into the evening European time, i gave up trying to load pages in any forum, both in Miles and Travel.
