It's easy:
1. Look at your original e-ticket confirmation. That will show your entire routing and times.
2. Look at what those flights are today. If they are the same, there hasn't been a change (or there was one, but it was switched back).
3. If there was a change and it is large enough, you can make your change and/or cancel fee free.
All that said, chances are that you would have received a notice if there had been a change, so it's not a high probability effort.
