Yes, post-ticketing, the "waitlisted" notation usually reflects some kind of schedule change.

Hopefully, it's just an issue of reissuing the tickets. If there's no award availability on the "new" BR flights, the only remedy may be to rebook on UA metal (which is of course impossible from BKK).

I doubt that BR will do anything. UA won't even make an effort to have its JV partners open award space in this situation, let alone a second-tier partner like BR.
