Am I entitled to anything??
Many thanks for the advice.
Was the Boston flight in J?
Given that you requested to be rebooked to BOS rather than arrive with a delay in JFK I think you have foregone any compensation for the delayed arrival; you proactively asked for a new ticket, and got it - presumably in J, so again there is no question of compensation for a downgrade either.
