Obviously make sure you haven't gone mad with the LAS hotel, but if it's a middle range propoerty I would expect that to be covered. The hire car delta should also be OK, though it would in a way be easier to process if you flew LAS-LAX. As for compensation, I suspect that's not payable thanks to Bert. but I don't have enough specifics about your case here.
