FWIW, used auto check-in feature for return EWR-ATL on Saturday. When went to print BP, got offer to UG for $79 (had $439 slashed out). I guess that is TOD.....

Just booked a quick tix SFO-SEA for July, econ+ seats came right up, whole thing took 5 minutes. I had been told that my Silver Elite got me econ+ w/o charge but I guess not. I'm perfectly willing to pay $80 r/t to be comfy. Go new United! Where's Gordon?

Good ol' DTS. I've found that even though they have the 3 day policy, if you call Sato (or whomever you go through) they will ticket it early. Agree that the new "feature" is super annoying though!!

Sure your new MP# is there? I made two reses today, unticketed and both were there in seconds.
But I snagged the good seats, so you're too late.

two new issues today
I was trying to get from DIA to LAX today. Flight went mx for a couple of hours, and rescheduled to leave at about 2:45. From 2:45 to 3:30 we sat while the FAs and GAs tried to reconcile the manifest as a result of people moving on and off the flight. They were very frustrated.
Then, we pulled away from the gate and sat on the tarmac for an additional 30 minutes. This was due to the manifest and associated weight and balance issues. FAs and the pilot in both cases were blaming SHAREs. |
Had to call 1K line to book intra-Asia award on UA & SQ. Agent could simply not do it. Confirmed available seats, but unable to grab them. Half an hour (incl. hold) excercise to no avail! Not including two botched phone attempts earlier in the day!

The mobile site no longer shows your upcoming itineraries after logging into your account... It is no longer possible to pull them up without knowing the locator. |

We're in Europe and just received BPs in e-mails from UA for our flights tomorrow.
We had not checked in online. Is this the new standard procedure?

I am sure it is bound to be a screw-up. Have you tried logging in to see what your status shows online?

Good idea. ^ No, we can't find any indication that we're checked in, just the usual "ticketed and confirmed" as per other future reservations. Of course, we're not as familiar with the new site as we were with the former UA site.

Ugh. That would drive me nuts. This really is the most amateurish "merge" I have ever seen.

Is it the return of a round-trip? When you check in for the outbound of a round-trip, I think there's a checkbox to automatically try to check you in for the return 24 hours beforehand.
In fact, the website told me it had no record of my reservation and it took upwards of 30 minutes for staff at SEA to "sync" me or whatever the afternoon before the flight. We've gone from one extreme to the other. This morning at ZRH it took the competent and friendly SwissAir front counter employee about 15 minutes simply to reseat us together on our second flight, this after reading through "the book," and consulting with colleagues and a supervisor repeatedly. |
We're flying SIN-HKG-SFO-LAX-DEN tomorrow. When I went to do OLCI, our seats were missing for HKG-SFO (had "decent" seats in E+), so I called the 1K Desk. They've confirmed that we're still in our original seats, but the website has "SEE AGENT" on the BPs under the seat assignment.. Hoping we don't show up to SIN to find out that we're in the middle row of E-.
Also had a 40~ minute delay on SFO-HKG due to SHARES. I did not catch the specifics, though. |

No INTL iphone boarding pass
Tried to check-in on the iPhone app for my ORD-LHR leg yesterday. It worked but was only offered email or fax as delivery options for my boarding pass. Is the iPhone intl boarding pass not working?

do not believe it did -- but CO did not join *A until 2008 so the history would be short and impact small.
thanks, all for the responses! |

Yes, it's the return of a round trip. The thing is that neither of us was able to check in on the outbound so we couldn't have checked the little "auto" box that others have seen. ....

Also for some reason if you are connecting it also won't issue a mobile boarding pass. |
