Qantas website down

[Grant Smith]

Not too sure about it being down since 6am, I was searching and able to book fares at just shy of 7am this morning on the Jetstar website...

Meh, either way ****e happens and what man makes, man can break...

World keeps on spinning - which I think you'll all agree is much more important than the QF website being down for a short period

ps was on Mel yesterday, and note DJ departure signs at each gate beared no resemblance to what was going on at the gate, one at 4.45 said the plane arrived at 9.30am

Glad you spread the love to all companies with poor IT set ups

Umm there is a back-up system and judging by the orginal post the said back-up system kicked in, just with reduced functionality.

As for the DJ issue wasn't it with the check-in system not their web site?

The computer problems must have been significant - the staff at the Qantas Club told me they had "no computer system" at 11 am in Sydney and were using QuickCheck terminals and telephone calls to some central location to alter people's reservations.

It seemed to all be working OK at 4 pm when I was at the Qantas Club lounge in Canberra.

Its nice to see back up procedure that work. I did not hear about any significant delays for QF. I do stand to be corrected.

I tried to check in online late Saturday night but the website wouldn't let me do it. So ended up checking in at the airport.
