If you are looking for travel insurance to protect you across separate tickets, I think you'll find that most standard policies in the UK cover you only to about £300 or so, and there are typically specific clauses that exclude many situations encountered in these homemade itineraries.
Not if you're flying American Airlines, apparently.
LOL!
Delays due to weather, or apparently closed runways at PHX are "outside AA control" and therefore if you want meals/lodging for your 12+ hours that you're stuck at the airport you have to foot the bill yourself.
Want another airline? They'll refuse to interline you and you'll have to pay the ticket out of your own pocket.
