Frankly, I wouldn't accept that. May be too late now, but why couldn't they get you to SXM on another carrier today?? Of course today is Saturday, so maybe all the other planes were full. Stupid question I know, but are they going to give you anything for screwing you out of a day of vacation and your first class tickets? If they told you no, I would be on them about it when you get home.

I hope, when you finally arrive, that your vacation is smooth as silk..
