However, in the app, I still see Status: Disrupted. and "New Flight Schedule" on the new flights. Is that normal, as in, yes, these are your new times, or are these new ones also not running? I got through to chat earlier today very quickly but not having so much luck now to confirm. Anyone else have the same experience?
Double check that you have the new flight numbers -- it should say "Confirmed".
There are a lot of schedule jigs going on at the moment -- it appears that EK has pushed the rollout of its pre-attack schedule for European & Asian destinations back by another 2 weeks -- previously I had seen full schedules loaded from 15 March, now they appear to be
29 March. From now until the 29th many non-key destinations with multiple flights per day only have one skeleton flight per day (e.g., MXP, BCN, KUL, CGK, etc.). Key markets (UK, BKK, etc.) remain with multiple albeit reduced overall frequencies.
