Jet Airways revised segment - impossible connection

My wife's itinerary (same ticket, PNR) was originally:

9W117 16AUG LHRBOM HK 2120 1100
9W70 17AUG BOMBKK HK 1235 1440

This has been revised to:

9W117 16AUG LHRBOM HK 2120 1100
9W70 17AUG BOMBKK HK 0840 1440

Which as she's not in possession of a time machine, is not going to work out. Guessing she will need to ring the airline? Any suggestions / thoughts?

Is there a later flight that day? If yes, don't do anything. The system will likely recognize the issue closer to the departure date and put her on the next flight.

guess the only way that is possible is she starts on 9w119 which is the 0930 am flight and connects at BOM

If BOM-BKK is a nonstop before and after the schedule change, then there must be a mistake somewhere.

I don't know about the flight times stated by OP, as they seem to be incorrect. But, currently, 9W operates 9W60: BOM 1235 - 1825 BKK.
This flight isn't available for booking in August.

IIRC, 9W was 3x daily on BOM-BKK-BOM sectors. But recently they have started codeshare with PG. That along with the off-peak season may be the reason for reduced frequency.

Contact 9W and modify to alternative flights with lower transit time.
