Access Denied

You don't have permission to access "https://www.cheapoair.com/" on this server.

It worked a few days ago for me on Chrome.

Now I get the above error message.
Downloaded 4 other browsers...all come up with the error.

I messaged them on Facebook and they replied "I think We don't sell tickets in Vietnam".

If I use a USA VPN, the site works as expected, but VERY SLOW.

Anyone else care to check and see if you get the same error?

Thanks.

it is working normal and fast when browsing from Germany. Your VPN probably is slow

Thanks. Site appears to be down across all of Vietnam, I had some peeps check for me in Saigon too, same error.

Problem seems to be on their end, it's redirecting to HTTP immediately instead of staying with HTTPS.

I might use my VPN to access the site and send a report to the powers that be at cheapoair.

Interesting...CheapoAir tech support said this.

We are no longer opening up our website for Vietnam region, as well as others, perhaps in the future, but now it's been pulled.

So not only Vietnam, but other regions blocked as well.
