Schengen visa maximum duration of stay exceeded due to flight change - Person Driving A Person Flying an Aircraft

​I am on business visit in Italy with ​​Schengen visa having validity of one year.

My stay planed was from 19th Sept 2013 (entry) to 17th Dec 2013 (expected exit).

Due to some reason ​airways have changed it to new date i.e. 18th Dec 2013. The change of flight date is not under my control.

I have checked with visa calculators that on 1​8th Dec it will be my 91st day.

Is it fine to travel with changed tickets?

What may be the consequences?
