Both mine, and a friend's haven't allowed us in since last night:

We're sorry your account is currently unavailable. Please try again later or contact your Flying Club helpline.



Is it just us...? [:?]

Must be a major system failure, do they operate a Data Centre or are they reliant on a distributed system(s)?

I'm afraid it is quite serious but not sure how much detail to put up on here. At the moment I don't think there can be any timeframe put on a fix.

Things are slowly getting back to normal but there are still several applications unavailable that could still impact the operation tomorrow.

From a passenger perspective though things should be no different.

What happen to the gold line in the US? I cannot call. I want to upgrade to PE with cash. VS has no method to take my money. I am complaining to the BBB.
