Does the New United hate Firefox?
Getting "The page isn't redirecting properly" several times a day for united.com, but not always. Anyone else? Seems like they may have a bad pool of servers...

Try clearing the browser history and cache to see if the problem clears up.

I got the problem as well start last night for both Chrome and Firefox. Gave up after few tries and looks like the problem is still there. Did clean up of cookies and history as suggested, did not do anything to resolve the problem.

Not able to finish booking a ticket...

This is really ironic. On Saturday 3/3 FF, Chrome, Opera, etc worked and IE didn't.

Update:

Just tried the new UA website with the latest FF, no addons except Spybot S&D. No issues at all.

It was fine for me after 3/3 until first noticed yesterday. Don't see that's a browser issue as nothing has changed on my laptop.

On Firefox, I got this message:


"This page isn't redirecting properly
--------------------------------------
Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

...."

Forgot to mentioned, I can't even login to see my account.

united.com broken in Firefox again?
Is anyone else having issues with united.com in Firefox? All my extensions are disabled and after I log in, I just get a plain white page with tons of errors in the browser console.

That's how I feel about Edge and Safari.

I use Firefox because it works pretty much everywhere (e.g., Chrome is no longer supported on my MacBook Pro).

No. It just hates customers.
