Precisely what happened the last time I though I was going to get a VDB due to weight & balance limitations. There were misconnects & at T-15 minutes I was told to board. Several standbys immediately followed. Every seat that they wanted to fill was filled.
The OP misconnected. He should take those $150 vouchers & run with them. If he really wants what he would get under normal circumstances, he should return the vouchers & humbly request 5K miles.
