If so, you should have gotten an email or phone call about the change. I have those set up, but recently haven't gotten my alerts.
I have all my alerts set. I was never alerted on a waitlist change, though I was alerted for 'regular' flight changes (e.g. - flight time changed). Incedentally, they made two flight changes that caused a 35 minutes connection and an **8 minute connection** and I had to call and have those changed manually right before we left because they were not (re)changed automatically on their end.
lastly, when I say waitlist, I should have specified, I was waitlisted because I used a reward and couldn't originally get on the flight I wanted (using a standard reward).
