Wife and I got left behind in MXP a few months ago by DL due a last minute Payload Optimized flight. We thought we had got lucky after seeing our names cleared into FC but the gate agents called us up right before boarding and delivered the unfortunate news.
Our Plan B was to buy a last minute ZED on EK, which left MXP-JFK only about 3 hrs later on the A380 and my word, that has got to be the most comfortable Economy class seat I've ever sat in and I'm 6'3" >280lbs. Someone mentioned it being akin to a CRJ FC seat and it's not far off! Entertainment and Cabin service was really top notch. Just reporting my own personal experience. YMMV.
