Not my sentiment when our flight from Frankfurt to Hong Kong was delayed due winter weather, we lost our connecting flight to Manila, therefore the day's last flight to Busuanga. Had to find hotel in Manila for party of eleven, then the same number of new air tickets, lost one prepaid day at the resort.
Travel insurance is a good thing.
