Otherwise iCrew would have been junked 10-15 years ago and/or the iCrew phase-out would have been the lead story in this week's Flight Ops email instead of being buried in an FAQ several pages down.

Slightly related...is there any way to "register" your home computer for self service? Every other website I've used that requires MFA allows you to register a home computer so you don't have to do MFA each time you login. And most of those are financial websites which actually seem to have IT departments from this century.

But they don't so who gives 2 craps? Hopefully somebody here can remind me how bad parking or dhing was in 2004 so I can stop my complaining!

Interesting tidbit from the Flt Ops update, iCrew being phased out over the next 18 months. As much as I despise that interface that is a lot of functionality to move elsewhere. They'd have to build up MiCrew to quite a big level. Or I wonder if iCrew will exist in another form?
