Whereas the most realistic solution to my example might be, "the parties 
involved reconfirm their appointment", I expect that public transportation 
companies such as railways and airlines have specific rules to deal with 
these situations.  That might give us some insight what the 
industrial-strength resolution could be, even if we deem it inappropriate to 
implement it at the end.  So if someone has knowledge in that area, I'd be 
interested.
