Though they gave us another flight 4 hrs later (adding this delay) and they comped us a very cheap lunch (P180 each). They did not compensate us for the inconvenience, nor did they upgrade our seats!
In fact they acted like this was our fault and not theirs!
That a airline would change their flight schedule and not even call the people who had made reservations seems wrong to me! There we were on a RETURN FLIGHT GOING HOME! And these people expected us to look at a email they never sent! Why couldn't they have called, they had our cell number? While waiting at the airport, (sitting on those uncomfortable steel benches) I went online and made a complaint to their Civil Aviation Authority. Still I feel others should know just how callous and insane this airlines is!
Beware, these people will change your flight schedule and you may find yourself trapped in a city hundreds of miles from home due to their ineptness! They don't call you! They don't contact you! You don't find out till you arrive and they then accuse you of not checking with them!
If you booked via 3rd party then the airline notifies the 3rd party, and it becomes the 3rd party's obligation to notify you
