I have an 8h45min layover in ISL later this month, booked in J. When I booked my flight the rule was free hotel for layovers over 7 hours in J, now the rule is 9 hour threshold. Am I out of luck or is the rule dependent on when the flight was booked? Part of why I booked this itinerary was the free hotel - I like breaking down my two long flights with a short stint in a hotel, sometimes in Istanbul and sometimes in Doha. Without the hotel this is a very bad layover and I would have never booked this itinerary...
