Sorry to say, but OP was greedy on that one. ATL-RDU is less than 1hr wheels up to wheels down. Was it really worth holding out for a rebooking in F for such a short flight? IMO $200 is a pretty low compensation level and wonder if it would have been wiser to negotiate a higher voucher amount, and then taking whatever middle seat was still availble on the new flight...
