Apologies as it does not seem I described this "issue" properly. Yes, schedules and delays change all the time and there is nothing for us to do about that. But If they are significant enough to warrant a change on the website, why does the text or email notification not happen as well, reliability? If I'm notified at 7am & 9am for a 12pm revised departure, why do they suddenly stop when changes happen after that? Two and done programmed in somehow?
