Default vanda 'repotting' questions

Hi,
I went to Lowes today to buy landscaping cloth for the foundation of my new greenhouse, and I just couldn't leave the store until I checked out the orchids, of course. They had some new 'bag-babys' so I browsed through them then came home with a vanda (pic attached). I would like to transfer it to a vanda basket, which leads me to.....

Question 1: If I have understood correctly in the past, I should just sit the vanda and it's existing little plastic basket inside my vanda basket. Is this correct, or not? If so, I don't understand what is to be done with the hanging roots ??? If this is not how the 'transfer' should be done, will you please advise me?

Question 2: The plastic basket that I bought the vanda in will not fit inside a 4" vanda basket. If I'm correct in that I should indeed transfer the orchid as I mentioned, should I go up another basket size or try somehow to remove the plant from the basket that it was in at the store?

I would appreciate any advice that you can offer me.
Vicki
