Virgin Atlantic Awards (for Delta Flight)

I have a flight booked from ATL-ICN in October (if COVID allows) but Delta moved the flight back by 12 hours! This screws up my ability to fly out of ICN to DPS as originally planned. There are no open Delta flights (in Business) showing on Virgin Atlantic around the same date. Will I have any luck changing this flight? I assume no since there aren't any award flights available and my only choice would be to cancel (and find a way to use those VA points). Any suggestions?

I would give the call center a ring as ask what suggestions they may have after doing some research into available flight options yourself.

You really can't rely on separate ticket "connections" during COVID. Schedules are simply not firm at any time...

Flying Club will only be able to rebook into award space offered to them by DL. Unless you can find a better alternative, you'll have to rebook your ICN-DPS flight. I'd build in another day or two to cope with further changes. Seoul is well worth spending some time visiting anyhow...
