3. Login Problems
There would be four reasons why you would not be able to login:
- You are not authorized. This may be because you are not on active flying status. Also, remember to use your birth date and not your seniority date. If you continue to receive the "The file number and birth date you entered do not match" message, then please contact reservewishlist@gmail.com.
- There is a problem with your computer and/or web browser. Although the Reserve Christmas Wish List system is supported on a variety of web browsers and computers, there may be programs installed on your specific computer that may prevent the submission of the form or processing of your data. You can try either:
- Restart your computer and visit this page: www.unitedafa.org/wishlist. Then, try and login again.
- If you are using Internet Explorer, you may want to try using Firefox. You can download and install Firefox from this page: www.firefox.com. NOTE: we do not provide technical support for installing and using the Firefox web browser.
- You might also want to try Google Chrome: www.chrome.com. NOTE: we do not provide technical support for installing and using the Chrome web browser.
- There is a problem with the Reserve Wish List system. If you see a strange yellow/white error message page when trying to login or use any of the pages, please contact reservewishlist@gmail.com and let us know the headline of the error message.
- You are a Continental Flight Attendant. This system is currently only available for legacy United flight attendants.
4. I am unable to submit my preferences. Every time I keep clicking on the 'Submit' button nothing happens.
Ensure that your computer has JavaScript enabled. How to do this.
5. I am seeing pop-up advertising and/or my computer is freezing up and won't allow me to submit my preferences.
Your computer is probably infected with malware/adware/spyware. We do not use pop-up ads on this web site.
6. I cannot access Unimatic!
We do not troubleshoot Unimatic connectivity problems, sorry. You will need to contact the United Help Desk at (847) 700-5800.
7. My computer is crashing! Freezing! Spinning round and round (like a record, baby) and I'm not able to start it! I cannot use it to submit my bids! I want to go bury my head in the sand.
Try using a different computer or get it repaired.
