Not to any great extent. My wife's itinerary was left intact (different PNR), so I had to come into LAX approx. 24 hours before her, thanks to the forced changes. She enjoyed an extra free day at the Grand Hyatt Erawan in BKK, because they very kindly gave her a late check-out till 8 PM (I departed at 5 AM).
So, I guess I am out one extra taxi fare (400 Bht) and one night at the Hyatt Place LAX, around $200- in total.
I really feel for critten, though. 3K is a lot to worry about for these booking shenanigans.
