Welcome to my world. We had flights booked MEL>LAX in November. If we took the SYD option we would be in the same prediciment (missing our connecting flights from LAX), so now we are flying out of BNE a day earlier.

The best the VA CSR was willing to offer was to book us on the SYD>LAX flight the same day (not that they even knew the MEL flights had been pushed back till December), thankfully my mrs works as a travel agent and has sorted something out.

Our travel insurance is going to cover the cost of accom in LA for the night luckily.
