Correct. I was flying economy. I have elite status on AA but I have never flown CX before and have no status with them. Cathay is of course part of the OneWorld alliance

I’m curious....I assume the only way to know who changed the flight is to ask say an AA or CX agent? If it was some sort of automated system that did it, will the agent know who’s automated system changed it?

When in was LAX and I spoke to an AA agent to get back on they flight, I didn’t think to ask her who changed it and she didn’t voluntarily tell me who did it, if she knew.
