Is anyone else having problems accessing qantas.com today?
I usually login 2 or 3 times a day, but have had lots of trouble this weekend.

When I enter qantas.com in my browser I currently get redirected to

http://www.qantas.com.au/australia.html

which it then says it can't find??

I have tried on my laptop with two different ISPs (iinet and Telstra) and other computers in our home (just using iinet).

Sometimes I successfully get the expected home page (after about 3 minutes) and other times I have also seen some internal errors relating to gateway timeouts.

Has anyone else had similar problems?

Cheers,
Paul

That link does not work for me; when I enter 'qantas.com' I get redirected to Qantas Homepage

Other than that try www.qantas.com.au
 
start > run > cmd /k tracert www.qantas.com.au ... see what path its trying to take, although probably not a overly huge help due to the huge cluster the site gets served off.. at least worth looking at, though.
 
It seems I don't have any difficulty getting to qantas.com or qantas.com.au but there are some redirects that I'm having trouble with after the first page is fetched.

For example: Resolving www.qantas.com.au... 125.252.202.110

For example, I just got the following:

Service Unavailable - Zero size object

I'm going to guess that there's an edge server playing up somewhere
 
dnsstuff.com says the following: (so what is an edge server)

Response:


DomainTypeClassTTLAnswere566.b.akamaiedge.net.AIN2072.246.90.110

NOTE: One or more CNAMEs were encountered. www.qantas.com.au is really e566.b.akamaiedge.net. [www.qantas.com.au->www.qantas.com.au.edgekey.net->e566.b.akamaiedge.net]
 
Yep, it seems to be if you're routed through Optus - you're having problems.
