  • Inbound jet to DAL, from TPA, is delayed due to covered hazard...weather, or mechanical issue
  • Once inbound jet arrives in DAL, new departure time is 1 hour or more later...i.e., no way to make connection in PHX

What do you do, to get coverage for a hotel room for an overnight?
  • Remain in DAL?
  • Board the delayed DAL-PHX, knowing connection will be missed, and stay overnight in PHX?
  • Or something else? Or does coverage not apply, since it was only the TPA-DAL flight that was affected by the issue/hazard and it caused DAL-PHX delay?

I am thoroughly confused.

Thanks.
If the TPA-DAL flight is delayed due to a mechanical problem, isn't WN responsible for paying for your lodging in the event of a mis-connect?

Are you sure that the PHX-LAX flight will operate on schedule tonight?

Edited to add: If a mis-connect at PHX is likely, ask to be re-accommodated on WN's DAL-LAX nonstop:
