They will not put you on AA. They will confirm you on the next available Delta flight usually the following day. Hotel room will be comped if its an overnight.

It doesn't hurt to have some flight options in mind but usually the GA's are pretty good about getting you out ASAP after a VDB. However if you want to go tomorrow night versus tomorrow morning i'm sure they would honor this request.
