Please tell us all your tricks to raise the stakes in compensation! How do you negotiate? I, once, with my two children got from DL (bumped in Denver) hotel, dinner, breakfast, a ride in a limo to drugstore and Denver Mint and Elitche's Amusement Park (I think all the transportation was courtesy of the hotel DL put us up in) and vouchers for free RT ticket anywhere domestic. Then the next day they flew us home First Class. I have never done better since. Would love your hints!
