Let's say you are trying to commute from your city, and there is a flight on Delta at 8:30a and another flight at 9a that would get you to base in time, and you were not able to get on either, then you ok.

You are expected to try to keep getting to base, and once you do, you are put in your original trip. You are not put on a different trip.
