Just to close the loop on this...

Which do you think is the most current (or is the best reflection of what UA intends to offer for that day)?

From ExpertFlyer/FlightStats

UA 5732 CAE IAD 5:50AM 7:16AM

UA 5737 CAE IAD 6:56PM 8:22PM

It looks like UA schedule/equipment changes that were implemented this weekend were picked up by ExpertFlyer/FlightStats before the United.com booking engine. The United online booking utility picked up the UA changes about a full day after the changes were uploaded to EF/FlightStats. I was checking EF, FlightStats, United.com frequently throughout the weekend; even early this AM, United.com was showing the wrong info.

So odd that United's own website would be the last to update information about its own flights.
