Schedule change - forced overnight (AA Award)
I posted this over in the AA forum and didn't get any answers, and figured it might be better off here, since I am asking Etihad for help.
I am flying MCI-DFW-AUH-AMM. Original connection in AUH was ~4 hours getting me into AMM at 2AM. I have a non-refundable hotel booked in Amman already.
Schedule change yesterday to the AMM flight, it now leaves at 10:30AM, meaning I have a 14 hour layover, forcing an overnight. There are no alternate travel options.
This is an AA award but in First, but due to the forced overnight, is requesting for Etihad to pay for/book hotel on our layover a reasonable thing? Or do I need to pursue AA for this? Any DOT regs or anything that apply here?
