The problem is that after the captive portal redirects, I'll have also a HTTPS redirect and Chrome remembers the certificate and to use only HTTPS. So I cannot use the same site twice (in a session). A well-known public HTTP only site will resolve this.
Well-known sites usually work, causing less debugging of the Wi. Why No HTTPS? HTTPS is now free, easy and increasingly ubiquitous. It's also now required if you don't want Google Chrome flagging the site as "Not secure".
Yet still, many of the world's largest websites continue to serve content over unencrypted connections, putting users at risk even when no sensitive data is involved.

Sites which may involve the transmission of very sensitive data, such as health or banking information, are marked with an to signal they should deploy HTTPS.
After this first load, the web browser has the site's HSTS policy and is able to require HTTPS for all subsequent loads. To account for this first-load problem, Chrome maintains a list of domains that have a strong HSTS policy and are HTTPS only. Edit: If you're wondering why you test a site on the list and find it successfully redirecting to HTTPS, please do read the post above before commenting.
There are many different circumstances where the same site will or will not redirect. Some websites will use standard HTTP if you don't specifically ask for a secure connection, but you can often force sites to use HTTPS by simply changing "http" to "https" in the address bar.
