Not the answer you want but with loads out of ANC so high, it’s just the unfortunate way things are
Definitely NOT the answer that I'm looking for here. I do take significant issue when an airline can unilaterally change an itinerary like this. Again, my original flights are still operating as scheduled...I'm simply not on them.
I suppose I'm asking a specific question for my itinerary here but it does beg a larger question: What's the point of making a reservation when the airline can simply decide it would rather you take different flights instead? That's just a dangerous road to go down and a practice that wouldn't "fly" with most customers. It certainly turns the idea of overbooking and compensation on its head if the airline can proactively move you to a different flight without any offer of compensation. Seems to be a simple way to avoid VDB or IDB situations.
