Rebooking by least damage

A confirmed itinerary drawn as a chain of five links (a flight with a connection, a two night hotel, a train and a return flight) where any leg can be cancelled: the component searches the declared alternatives and ranks them by how little they break the rest of the trip, adding up the change of city, the lost hotel, the train that falls, the day shift, the travellers moved and the minutes past the arrival deadline. As it walks each alternative the chain shows live which links stay intact, which are relocated and which fall, with a Spanish sentence explaining what is lost, and it warns when none arrives in time by offering the least bad one.
