I got an email the other day saying one of my flights to europe (ORD-FCO) was going to leave 10 minutes earlier than previously scheduled.
No biggy - I checked my bookings in my tripit app and I still had more than an hour in ORD between my flights....
Except - when I went online, I noticed they'd given me a different flight from SAN-ORD... one that arrived only 13 minutes before my flight to Italy. I wasn *not* notified of this change in flight# and schedule.
The airline I booked through is not the same airline who's flights changed (code-sharing flights) so they're trying to sort it out.
I would have been so hosed if I hadn't been paying attention. As it stands now I have to leave San Diego a bit earlier than planned (the original flight changed time as well) but that's better than missing the flight to Italy.
