Thanks!
It's supposed to happen automatically when there is a schedule change (if you provided an email address at booking or in your profile), but in reality the service is spotty at best. Or, the change happened recently and UA hasn't notified you yet..you may still get a notification. As we all preach around here it's best to check your itineraries often especially when booked far in advance and monitor for schedule changes, unexplained seat changes, etc. While it would be great to say you can always count on UA to inform you in a timely manner... the fact is you can't.
