Yeah, happened to us. Booked UPB to HKT via DMK. NOK cancelled the first leg so we had to reschedule to earlier, then NOK rescheduled the second leg to be later. The result was that what was originally a two 2 layover in Bangkok turned into an 8 hour layover. Yuk. We did take advantage of their lounge, comfortable couches, free food and all that. Originally they refused lounge entry based on their not before 2 hours before flight rule, but after I explained how they changed their scheduling to cause our long layover they acquiesced. The rescheduling resulted in over payment, which took some work to eventually recover.
