    Access is dependent on receiving an automated email/SMS. There's nothing to claim.

  Nope, your flight is rescheduled not delayed. It will not trigger flightstats, and thus no SMS.

  The best way to think of this is, "What will the screen in the airport display?".
  Will it state:
  (a) Flight XXXX, Date, 10:00pm, Delayed till 4:55am
  or
  (b) Flight XXXX, Date, 4:55am, On Time

  Is this going to count to get the free lounge pass?

  Most likely not. Although it may be very inconvenient for you, especially at that hour, a flight that has been deliberately retimed in advance is not regarded as delayed.

  Who knows if they will report it as technically cancelled or just not report it at all and nothing will happen.

  It should be reported and show the new timing. Unfortunately that won't help you.

  "lounge passes can only be issued if the airline accurately reports the delay to FlightStats" seems pretty dodgy.

  It's not perfect but it's generally reasonable, especially with longer delays (whereas shorter delays may get missed or misreported).

  Wondering if it was a waste of time to enter in all that info to the 28 degrees site when it may be super super rare that you can ever actually redeem anything.

  If you are delayed, which you don’t really want to be, it’s like insurance, when you need it, you are glad you have it.

  And your Cebu flights on time performance is normally 81% (flight tracker)

  I think you need to register for the offer at the time of making a booking - not after you become of a delay

    There is no requirement to register at the time of booking.
