But that's what we get for letting Oceania Cruises do the air booking.

Have you considered hiring a concierge service to help with your connection? Several such services are available. I don't know much about them other than what I read in my Google search results. I found Universal Sky VIP, Royal Airport Concierge and Airport Butler; there are probably more.
