Hotel: definitely (this is explicitly addressed in the Reg). Transport to Manchester: strictly speaking, the reg only explicitly anticipates the issue of arrival at an alternate airport rather than departure. However, I would expect that the ECJ would probably apply this by analogy in relation to alternate departure airport but I would not be surprised by KL rejecting this and forcing you to court to fight the point.
