Flight Rebooking Dramatically Alters Travel Plans for One Host

I have a flight from Austin to Boston, and it was perfectly timed with just a four-hour layover to then go to Reykjavik.

They moved it up to the crack of dawn and now I have like a nine-hour layover in Boston on Christmas Eve.
Kim
But that is a terrible situation when that happens. Understand flights change, but when it's so dramatic that it really alters your whole travel day, it's horrendous.
