Flight Status IT Date Problem
The flight status information (at least on the mobile ap) seems to have a problem with dates. For example, if you do a flight status inquiry for 976 (IAD-DOH, via DXB), departing on August 2nd (Thursday), it will show the first leg correctly (departing IAD on Thursday) but shows the second leg incorrectly - it shows the second leg from Thursday's DXB departure. But the second leg of this flight departs Dubai on Friday!
The same problem infects the "where is this flight coming from" feature. If I look to see the status of today's DOH-DXB flight (which I happen the be flying on), it oddly shows yesterday's inbound DXB-DOH flight, not today's. Which doesn't, of course, even have a matching ship number. Has anyone seen other routes effected by this bug? |

It must be under the spell from straight from the 1001 Arabian nights as my 2013 DOH inbound flight from MLE shows as 28 hours long (when it should be only 4) getting me to DOH 15 hours afte my JFK flight leaves. I triple checked with CS and with QR reps and all my connections are as they should be - just US's IT thinks differently. |
Yes - same issue if you ask for push alerts for a flight while in one time zone, then switch time zones, it will then give you an update for a flight a day earlier or later. Annoying bug.
