My flight out of ELP returned to the gate and was delayed so much I would've had zero chance of catching my connecting flight in ATL, which was the very last flight of the day to arrive at my destination. Instead, I took a voluntary bump in exchange for a $1,000 Delta voucher, free overnight accommodations, and a free dinner voucher (offered and accepted before the flight delay). I have confirmed seats and boarding passes for flights first thing in the morning and I'll be home by lunch tomorrow. I have no complaints.
