Seems like the upgrade availability indicator icon is back now

New website, at least not the award search area where I spent at least 2 hours each day, is remarkably less-user friendly, harder to read, and much slower. On the last point, there is no debate. Going from date to date even with 250MBS down lags longer than the old .bomb.

Spent time on the website this weekend researching 2016 vacation travel, and you're right, it is now much slower than it was a few months ago.

What happened to the "Today's Operations" page? It just gives links to weather.com forecasts. All the flight delay information is missing.

I can't see a month calendar view with United's non-stop flights only when searching for award ticket using the new United.com UI. There is no way that I can find out on which day of a month that a saver award ticket on United only is available. It now always includes the award level with partner airlines.

I'm definitely missing some search results. I just tried to book DEN->SJC on 1/11, and the united.com search didn't even show me UA748, which had plenty of seats available. I found it via Hipmunk and booked it on United. What's up with that?

If I can't trust the search results, I'm not going to use the site.

Just did the search and it came up at the top for me. A temporary glitch?

Next steps for the new united.com (post your comments, questions and concerns here)
 
I really miss the PMUA option to select an outbound and return on one screen.

Me too - it was one of my biggest complaints about the switch to SHARES, and I'm really disappointed that we didn't get that feature back on the new site.

+1. I've put that in my feedback since the change. It really helped me when planning a trip with a single meeting.

Simple schedule change this morning - as in only the flight number changed but nothing else and I was not able to accept the change on-line. I tried multiple times complete with logging out and clearing cache, cookies and history but to no avail and had to call in to get it done

Why?

Because the segment in question had a waitlisted upgrade and that was preventing the change being from accepted on-line :rolleyes:

I find that amusing -- that was my biggest gripe about the :eek:ld PMUA site. I always wanted to know ALL of the possibilities and the all-on-one-screen display never did that for me.

Perhaps we can all agree that the constant scrolling necessary to use the new site is incredibly annoying.

Booking Question
 
On the old UA site it was possible using the multi city booking to get 1 way in business and 1 way in economy. With the redesign of the website that is gone. Is there any work around of this somewhere where I can see it?

fireflash Dec 28, 2015 1:59 am

Have you actually tried doing a search of your desired route? On each leg of the results screen you can choose Y or J.

Purchase extra miles glitches
 
Hi-

When trying to purchase extra miles for an upcoming trip I get an error message before getting to last page, it's been happening for 2 days regardless of browser Google Chrome or IE

Error
