Hi all

i have a friend who is booked on the BA7013 HKT-DOH on the 26th March operated by Qatar. It was due to depart at 2105. He has now received a schedule change (with no reason why) bringing the flight forward to departure at 0905 and with a 13h20 layover in DOH. There is still a flight showing at leaving around 2100.

Few questions - we cannot find this new flight anywhere and i wondered if anyone with access to more systems can see that it has been scheduled, what are the load factors on the evening flight and do you think there is any chance he will be able to get back on that one if he asks and any advice one whether its worth pushing for accommodation for the now 13hr+ layover?

Thank you for any advice.
