That's the only course of action I could think of......very unfortunate....and the Daughter must remain unmarried, correct?

I feel like you're quizzing me.

 

Yes, at least until the K-1 parent naturalizes. Before that daughter's marriage would kill an F2B petition, after naturalization that'd drop it into F3.

Why was this flight booked last minute? So what did OP end up doing to solve this?  I am quite sure this visa was issued long ago.

Immigration journey is not: fast, for the faint at heart, easy, cheap, for the impatient nor right away. If more than 50% of this applies to you, best get off the bus.

 I am curious, too. I think that is the elephant standing in the room.

This is akin to someone reaching the front of the queue, only to decide to go to the restroom and encounters 200 people ahead of him when he returns to join the queue. And kids, that is how we shoot our ourselves.

What would be the best course of action?  An I-130 filed by the biological parent after gaining LPR status?

Nothing else comes to mind

 

Crappy situation but I can not think of anything else.

She can not get on a plane without a negative test.

Yes, I had a K-2 stepson travel alone in 2010 (after his mother). He was 20 or 21 at the time.

This is a different situation.  The OP wanted the K2 to travel earlier than the K1.......and a K2 must be under 21 to be admitted via a K2.
