Cool! I look forward to trying it.
Now, if only Apple had a way to code the web form to turn off autocorrect, then you could do so on appropriate fields, and avoid the nonsense of autocorrecting airport and airline codes. Last time it did this, I ended up in some Catch-22 where the airline that EF thought I meant based on the autocorrect didn't fly the route, and I couldn't resubmit. |

Much easier to operate this interface with my fat fingers ^ (except maybe the AT&T part ;-p)
Wish all cabins could be displayed simultaneously on the seatmaps, but at least you have added the links to view the other cabins from the seatmap display without having to go Back. Thanks!

They do and we did. If we missed a field let us know. We also implemented the numeric keyboard on flight number and date fields to make that easier as well.

I'm having a problem with m.expertflyer.com on my blackberry where I can't enter enough letters. For instance in the airline code field I can only enter a single letter and in the airport field I can only enter two letter.

We're not seeing that problem on either the new or old mobile sites. Please make sure you follow these directions for the proper settings on your BlackBerry: https://www.expertflyer.com/mobile/faq.do

Thanks I've tried to write using Contact Us from the browser but got a 500 error. I'll use the website.

Hadn't logged in the mobile site for a while and I am pleasantly surprised to see the new interface.
It's a great upgrade. I like how the links are now more easily accessible by touch, and the information format is also much easier to read, which is perfect for on-the-go review of flight and upgrade status. |
KLM Seat Map glitch
Seems like when you select "Premium Economy" for KLM seat maps, it shows both the PE and regular E.
To replicate: YYZ-AMS KL696 Also, MD11 seat map doesn't reflect the Seatguru overlay despite Seatguru carrying the data on its site for the shown version of MD11. |
So if I just type in "expertflyer.com" on my Blackberry, it looks like I get the regular web-based site. I forget things like an initial "m." Shouldn't the program sense that the request is coming from a mobile and give me the mobile site automatically? That's what most mobile-enabled sites do.

All of these URL's work for the mobile site: m.expertflyer.com mobile.expertflyer.com expertflyer.mobi expertflyer.com/mobile use whatever you like best. What we do automatically sense is how advanced your mobile device is and show either the WAP or touch version accordingly.

Not at all. We did it on purpose so those with advanced mobile devices can decide which site they want use. iOS, Android, and BlackBerry OS all have tablets (and phones) that can handle the full site as well as the mobile version.

While I like that idea, and appreciate it on my iPad, I'd rather accidentally load the 'lite' version on a tablet than the relatively heavy full version on a cell connection. Any chance to default to the mobile site with a link to the full site at the bottom?

We have been taking this approach since the first mobile site was released in 2007, it's worked well thus far and changing it now would cause confusion. You can bookmark both and decide which to use as you see fit.
Would it at least be possible to detect that the user is accessing from a mobile device and have either a popup or a link at the bottom to the mobile site? Many times I go to sites and don't even realize they have a mobile version that might work better. My pet peeves regarding mobile sites: 1) Sites that automatically redirect you to their mobile site with no way of accessing the full site 2) Sites that automatically redirect all incoming deep links to the mobile front page (making accessing a specific page via Google an impossibility on a mobile device) So, if it ever comes to it, I'd like 2wheels's suggestion to be implemented, but make sure you avoid my pet peeves. ;) |
