I'm not interested in voucher to a crappy hotel near the airport. I went back to Manhattan and enjoyed my night. I'll just call customer care and see what I can get reimbursed. I don't foresee any problems here.
I did the same thing back in the day in Vegas when our AS 734 went mx overnight; just got a cheap hotel room (not hard in Vegas) and asked for something later. As I recall I got good compensation. It beat standing in line for the Travelodge.
