however, if the flight is canceled and you are rebooked on a flight after midnight, that is where things are tricky. . . . However, in case of the latter scenarios, you’d probably have a case to call in and ask for ORC. While I’d say the chances are good that it’s granted, . . .
ORC = original routing credit.

I agree with jsloan that the chances are well over 99.99% of getting the ORC or otherwise getting the PQP credited to the year of scheduled departure under such scenarios.

This is a routine situation, asked about every year.
