DL is not providing assistance, and AF Twitter team says they will only cover a hotel up to $100 despite their flight being delayed 21 hours. Thoughts? Do I apply for EU compensation after the fact?
You should call AF to rebook (despite DL answering phones for AF). AF phone or airport would have more leeway to rebooking you than DL SkyMiles reservations.
