New mobile.united.com site?

Not sure how new this is, but first time I’m seeing it ... the new mobile site looks GREAT! Very functional and no longer a copy of pda.continental.com (if that gives you any clue how old the mobile site was!)

What device and browser are you using? Mine looks nothing like that.

Wow wow wow - mobile reservation management that works, even seat maps that work!

This is game changing stuff. Don’t need to hit the “show desktop version” and clunk my way through anymore from iPhone.

really well done ... I’m liking this a lot.

Nice but a little bare, and needs more work.
For example, "Manage reservations" list includes PNRs, dates and traveler names, but no actual name or destination for a flight - makes it difficult to figure out what's what.

having the PNR and passengers is a big deal - I don’t even get that on the main United.com page. But I agree - destination would be very useful. Should be easy for them to add.

I am still showing the old one. How does flight search look? Does it show fare classes in expert mode?

Yes it does when logged in.

A0
JN0

New site looks great! Maybe this is what broke the desktop RPU/GPUs..?
RPU and GPU do seem to be displaying correctly on mobile, at least for now!

in desktop chrome, try the Device Mode = iPHone X
https://developers.google.com/web/to...s/device-mode/

then visit this site

(Don't need to change useragent for my Android chrome, just access the link above)

looks great, and (so far) it seems to remember to send you directly to the desktop site when you choose that option - even after logging out! that being said, i'll give the mobile version a shot for a few weeks.

Just wondering...why do people use the mobile site via iPhone/Android when the United app does basically everything (except change reservation (which opens a browser) and display expert mode information)?

The photo being shown on the home page above is now the photo that loads on the mobile app upon opening it. The mobile app on iPhone just updated today.
