But it is BAEC's duty to pass on the news. Your contract is with the ticketing entity. When I redeem miles on AS, AS often takes a month or two to deliver the news re: my inevitable LA schedule changes. Fortunately, I already know about it.

I did finally install LAN's mobile app and you can, as a non-LANPASS member, put in your itineraries. I hope that the app will update, as necessary. (I just checked, and it did update re: a schedule change on a Travel Agency booked trip in a few weeks.)
