Welcome to FlyerTalk
I'm curious how often you fly to think that the flight attendant would have info about compensation for delays. Have you ran across this before? I can't recall a flight attendant ever providing information on compensation due to delays.
I flew into DCA two weeks ago and we had an hour delay on the ground, due to a combination of lightning and then no available gate. Asking about compensation would be rather low on my list of questions to ask.
Have you asked this question of flight attendants on previous delays?
