Well the email said don't do anything for 5 hours and wait for another email. EU rules seem to say if they manage to get us on the 2 flight options close to our original time we can't get compensation which we need to pay for new tickets. So now we are back up at 6:30 am to look for that email. Just hoping other people might benefit from knowing the timing and what sas is saying.
This is good info, thank you for the data point!
All the best for your flight rebooking and please keep us updated how it goes.
