Not an improvement. Especially with the terribly slow (and getting worse) website response times.

Just tried booking a multi-city ticket with a 7-day FareLock...
It bombed out on the last page...Expecting a confirmation, I got an error.
It did save the itinerary, but it says "this reservation will expire [tomorrow] at midnight". There are no buttons that I can see to 'purchase' this.
There hasn't been a hit to my CC for any amount--the fare or the $8.99 for the FareLock.
I really want to lock this fare in, because if I go to rebuild it, I have the last seat 'pending' in my fare class. It jumps $100 if I go to rebook it again...I'm just not 100% certain of my travels yet, and won't be until after the holiday weekend. Aargh!

The very first page of the reservation used to show seat assignments. I first noticed the omission last night as well. Now you have to click "view/change seats" to see the current assignments.

) and raise it to my seat assignments are missing on the "view itinerary" page but are visible on the "print itinerary" page (and show as my seats when I view the seat map under the "view/change seats" option)

Thanks for this. Better than having to click through every segment, but still very inconvenient compared to just having them on the main page.

And oddly enough, the first itinerary I went to (the one I start tonight from GRU) shows '--' as my seat assignment for my connection to SEA tomorrow from a UA hub. But my seat assignment is still preserved if I look at the seat map. So the print itinerary option is not good either.
No it's not. That part has been working fine for me and continues to display in my itineraries. Check yours again and verify.

If they did, they put it back looking at my next non-non-stop itinerary
Although it appears to be formatted slightly differently than I recall...

Seat assignments are missing on my view itineraries pages. Given how frequently UA quietly bumps me from a seat assignment, this caused undue anxiety.
