Looks like Beta just went Alpha
 
Just went on to buy a ticket and got the new site.

Not liking it; I'm on laptop and don't need the huge graphics and lots more paging.

eh well...

This will probably get merged with the existing thread, but the site is slowly launching. Some (myself included) are still getting the old site (thankfully).

They are soft rolling out more and more visits directed to the new version...

No, it's not the default yet.

Seems to be for me. Humbug.

Though view reservations, where I just happened to go, is the old one...

The first post of the thread explains the transition plan and how to switch back and forward.

Also, in the software world, Alpha code/testing comes before Beta. When released for the general public it is call "production code."

Heh, that's how I interpreted it when reading the comment and thought, "Hah, funny.. it has taken a step backwards recently.."

I think this issue is fairly wide-spread. It was reported here recently. For me, it's saying I have 10 reservations when I only have 5.

For all of you reporting this problem...I just had the same thing after I created a new reservation last night on the new website. Prior to creating the new reservation it said I had 1 (which was correct). After creating the new reservation it said I had 7 (totally incorrect).

It's getting the 7 number from a combination of current, past and cancelled reservations from the old website. After I cleaned up past and cancelled reservations the new website now only shows me having 4 reservations. While 4 is still the wrong number it is still totaling what I have left in current and past. I save "past" reservations until my expense reports are paid and all flights have posted correctly.

Yes, this is a bug. But at least we can point to where the data is coming from.

#1. On the homepage, it states that I have a lot more reservations than I actually have. Anyone have this issue?

#2. Also, I have this issue:

I've been using the beta site for months now and the too many reservations and the overwritten text are new within the last couple of days. Never saw either before that. They must have fixed something and broken this.

It also ate all of my previous searches...the single best new feature of the beta site for me. A couple of days ago, my search history was gone. Same day I noticed the problem above. Both reported via the feedback form (along with the less serious, but annoying reversion to the B737 over Seattle picture).

It's confusing (and concerning) how such obvious errors are making it onto the production server.... Especially when they are new problems.

seat size reduction continues
 
Check out the seat size on this flight

Cockpit seems to be off limits, but perhaps I can sit in the closet, the bathroom, or the galley?
