Delta screwed up big time with my rescheduled flight. I wrote in to Delta and wound up getting a $250 voucher and 8,000 more skymiles.

Total comp = $250.00 and 32,000 miles. This was a coach class ticket.

Then, the Air France flight I was eventually put on to get back home was overbooked so I volunteered for a flight the next day. I got $400.00 from Air France for the bump.

Total overall comp = $650.00 and 32,000 skymiles.
Wow! That's better than most credit card churns, and you didn't even need to take a hard credit pull!
