There are a number of processes that need to run in airline systems (in ludong in those of partner airlines) after a reschedule of a flight, some of these are linked to the reschedule process, others are asynchronous and run as batch processes periodically.
Typically these processes would typically catch up with a schedule change after a few days, although they can be manually expedited if the flight is less than a few days away.
There was probably some suboptimal ordering of the various processes needing to run after two schedule changes in rapid succession, and it's taken a few days for this to be unravelled and fixed up.
not sure that's the explanation. When I got changed, I went back on the Qatar website and found my flight a 2 but now a new flight with a different number at 4:30 . Like I said, could not book because it said it was full. ??????
