It's just a $500 cap, you don't have to minimize each expense as long as they are within reason. Being able to book the expensive airport hotel instead of schlepping on a shuttle to a cheap motel 30 minutes away is kind of the whole point of the insurance, if you ask me.
Thanks. Should be able to come up with all that. Appreciate the run down.
Now I probably shouldn't get greedy and take a voucher for an even later flight today. Imagine that would complicate things! Though it's unrelated, really...
