BA changed departure time but AA doesn't see it?
I am arriving on July 28th from BWI on AA6173 which arrives at 9:05am. I then connect on AA6661 (BA0143) which was originally scheduled to depart at 10:10am. BA now says the flight leaves at 9am making it an impossible connection. I called the Executive Platinum desk and they see the scheduled departure as 10:10am still so they cannot adjust my flights. If I wait a day or so will this change get reflected in AA's system so I can work with them or should I just work with GBT to make the change?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Your best bet is to call BA directly to confirm the times since you’re flying on their metal for the full itinerary. If they did reschedule it, they will provide re-routing options. Right now the only option from BWI would be the same flight to LHR and then a 10 hour stopover until the 725pm flight to DEL.
If you want to originate out of Dulles or PHL, you could make the 9am flight since there are earlier flights to make that connection. They may offer those rerouting options.
Sort it it out with BA.

But since these are AA codeshares presumably booked through AA the BA rep is just going to tell you to call AA to get it sorted.
Another thread on the exact same issue just a few posts down on the first page...
BA / British schedule change, AA codeshare not updated

Thanks all, it sounds like I will just need to wait until Saturday. I am not originating from BWI just connecting through there so I have lots of flexibility so I am sure I can work it out with AA once they acknowledge that the connection is impossible.
