When I asked if we would be reimbursed for expenses (hotel and meals; estimated @ > $600, was told that AA has NO RESPONSiBILITY for flight cancelled because of "air traffic control issues." When I pressed this with the "help desk" I was told to contact the FAA (!).
This might be due to the air traffic control changes to move some coverage from NYC to PHL. Apparently that has not gone well. If so, AA was right to tell you to contact the FAA.
