There was no experience. I missed it. Flights from New York were all delayed due to inclement weather. Thunderstorms were spotted close to the airport and all ground operations halted for safety of ground crew. Since these are occurrences that can occur any moment and my timezone is 6 hrs behind the Zagreb’s timezone, so by the time I requested the change it was too late. I tried to catch my original connecting flight in FRA to ZAG, but the delay in New York was too long, Singapore Airlines’ effort to make up for delays at origin was literally offset by delays at FRA on arrival. I guess this is average for activities like this. There is required time limit when you can request changes. There is always that risk of losing it should something else like weather becomes an issue in the last minute. In retrospect, I do NOT recommend this type of activity. Uber (perhaps Bolt or a taxi) is readily available at the airport. Uber appears to costs less than transfers like this.
