Consolidated: Is united.com or parts of it down? And other UA website issues
Okay, booking flights on united.com is almost impossible for me these days. I've been trying for days.
The problem with me not being able to select GPU as an upgrade option continues. This option appears maybe one out of ten times I log in. So it's a tedious process.
So, for revenue tickets I get this: two different pricing for same fare class (E).
And then (not quite as problematic) "C" class listed under economy.
I have booked SAS on my last two trips because of .bomb.

This one is [relatively] new:"There may be additional options at nearby airports
Flights may be available at airports near Beijing, CN (PEK - Capital).Search nearby airports"
Not sure which airports United thinks are close to PEK that would give any decent results?
Maybe they think Beijing Daxing is already open, or Beijing Nanyuan offers anything worthwhile?

Is it just me or is booking ANY flight on united.com taking longer and longer?
I can't recall having this much trouble in the past, or maybe I am losing my patience in my young age? It's a struggle each time I try and book my flights nowadays.
How do most of you book flights these days? Look online and then call it in? There MUST be a better way than what I am doing.
Recent search shows ALL flights as "coach":

I have a couple issues, but not sure if it's website-related or more a back end system issue:
1. Any itinerary booked through my corporate travel department via Concur does not show any PQM/PQS/PQD earning information on .com, mobile or on the original receipt. This is new for all trips I've booked in 2017. Trips that I've booked personally on .com or mobile show everything normally.
2. I've tried to upgrade several Concur-booked PNRs with RPUs (R available) via .com and when trying to click "Purchase and select seats" it blows up and says request cannot be completed. I have to call to complete the upgrade.
Common theme is Concur-booked PNRs are playing well with UA's systems.

For #2, I've never cleared an instrument successfully from "Manage Reservations"; always had to call

Have an itinerary booked via United.com that was working fine, then applied a GPU request to Lufthansa (waitlist) and while it looks like everything is fine there is now no date in the "Trip Date" column on "View Reservations". It also means it is out of order, not that it really matters.
eTicket looks ok, and on the main United homepage in the My Trips box it shows a date, so I'm guessing something weird is going on specifically on that page but....odd.
Relevant to the discussion above, another trip that was booked via Concur worked fine just yesterday with applying and clearing a GPU online.

I was able to get in on the app AND the mobile website from my phone. Trying to log into the full site via phone ended up with the same message.
