@julia I think we will need more details on  this, it may be more on the wifi AP setup side where the issues lie
fwiw I have accessed all such portals the past few months without problems, in my experience you need to open a new tab and enter a new address request to trigger the proper behavior.

Title:
  not all captive portals work

Status in Canonical System Image:
  Incomplete
Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  It has happened to me that many captive portals don't work with my
  phone; as in it doesn't even offer me the chance to enter the login
  details. This is somehow important for someone that travels and uses
  airport and hotel's wifis. Can I help in any way to help to better
  understand the problem and solve it? It's not even that the system
  doesn't tell me to login; sometimes the browser won't take me anywhere
  useful to login and get access.
