Connecting Flight Information

I pretty consistently get information for my originating flight. I cannot remember the last time I got information for my connecting flight.

Is this a feature or a bug?

I like the connecting flight info to be waiting when I turn on my BlackBerry on the taxi way. It lowers (or raises) my stress level on those 30 minute IAH connections.

I also like the new disclaimer on delayed flight notifications that say you should arrive at the airport based on your originally scheduled departure time.

Edit: Lawyer mode: on exact disclaimer language just came in:

As of 1:03 pm/16FEB, CO****/16FEB from *** gate C25 is expected to be delayed. Since the flight may be cleared to depart on-time, you must be at the gate based on the scheduled departure time of *:** pm. The flight is now estimated to arrive into IAH at *:** pm. This information is provided as a courtesy and must not affect the time you report to the airport. Info subject to change.

... and see it is working today!
