I have to say I'm shocked. They did offer to move me to another flight (that got in 12 hours later), and I suppose I'd rather this than a cancellation. But, I can't believe the "largest airline in the world" can allow something like this to happen and doesn't have any redundancy in place prevent this.

I asked about compensation and she said that would have to come through customer service.
