Who dropped who? What about flight status updates?

I received the same email. Not sure it matters about the points tracking in the grand scheme of things.

My concern is the proactive flight monitoring. Is AA shutting off access to everything or just point totals?

I was very impressed with Tripit last week when I received a message that my flight would be delayed by an hour. The amazing thing is that I received the message 11 hours before my departure. AA EXP Desk said the flight was on time until 30 minutes before departure. The departure time moved 15 minutes later and then again, you guessed it, another 15 minutes later. As Tripit called it 11 hours earlier, the flight took off 1 hour late. I am curious how Tripit knows more about AA's flights that AA knows or is willing to share.

I hope this is a point monitoring only event and not a precursor to something more.
