I agree with your statement, the compensation was fair for the last leg of the trip to MUC. It would have been a nice gesture on AC's part to provide all J passengers with meal vouchers upon arrival, as they would be able to have a decent meal.
Shore9 is asking for way too much in the form of compensation. Even with the switch of aircraft, ac/elite and his wife was still seated in J, although not the nicest seats or aircraft, they were still able to maintain their seats in the J cabin. The compensation more than covers the delay and lack of proper meal service on the flight to MUC.
In the end, it matters that ac/elite and his wife thought the compensation was very fair. I think AC handled the situation well and they got you to your destination safely.
