i dont think we know the flight was changed like a week before departure
with different departure and arrival times. is this common?
he had to change his schedule to make his flight.

but i was also looking for info on overbooked flights and volunteering compensation also. because our plans our open in a flight we are taking soon and if requested i would volunteer. i want to know the appropriate compensation. should a family of 4 offer to volunteer? or would one or two of us be ok. are we guaranteed next flight status?
are miles offered, points, cash, future flights?
we are flying
LAX-Miami- MCO
MCO-charlotte- NAS
NAS-Miami-LAX
(over a 2 week period)
