Why was NW 35 AMS-DTW cancelled today

Hello,

I was scheduled to fly OSL-AMS-DTW-SYR today on KL and NW.

When I arrived Oslo Airport I was told that NW35 was cancelled and they managed to get me the last seat on CO39 OSL-EWR today.
I hate CO, and to pay for the wine just plaine stupid.

Did the plane make it to AMS, or did it have to stop somewhere on i it's way to AMS. They is just saying due to aircraft maintenance. It got cancelled 7AM AMS time, and that is more than 6 hours prior to departure.

Can I get any compensation? I will arive 40 minutes before my orginial NW flight (if my flight out of EWR are on time). They have provided me with alternativ flights, and that is good, but CO was cheaper for the same flights when I booked and still I went with a two stop on NW instead of the CO 1 stop.
