Sucks.
Im flying from den to LAX to jfk today. My flight out of Denver is delayed one hour thanks to some maintenence issue.
My flight from lax to jfk is in Flagship first. I won't make the connection now. My wife is CK so they arraigned a ground transfer but the flight takes off the exact moment were scheduled to land.
AA confirmed for the later flight in business.
What a pain. Would we still get the 12000 bonus miles?

Nevermind. Later flight now cancelled.
So leaving tomorrow. Then I misconnect again.
I had an I class ticket the next day. They then put me in J and P. So are mt earnings bases off J ticket or I ticket?

This is obviously a YMMV situation, but I booked a Y fare ORD - JFK - LHR upgraded to J using a SWU. The ORD - JFK took a delay due to weather and put my JFK connection in jeopardy and in turn my LHR connection. Admirals Club agent rebooked me on the BA nonstop in J arriving very close to when I would have arrived on my original itinerary, booked in 'C', and ended up getting my miles as if I booked a J ticket in the first place. Again, YMMV.

Hi guys,
Im a bit curious. My flight was CANCELED yesterday and they got me on a flight ONE DAY LATER. I had another flight (Business class I) that was missed as a result.
So far, AA has given me a voucher for a hotel last night and I have an "authorization" for hotel tonight.
But what compensation can I ask for?
I mean, they did put me in J not I class, which is pretty good compensation IMO!

Small world - I was the guy next to you talking about how they cannot interline Delta any longer when we were both at the counter early into the delay. I couldnt believe when that flight went MX after my flight the night before did the same. Eventually they got me out in United Y at 525. Awful experience but glad it is over.
Now I get to go through the fun of trying to get them to cover the Westin Denver Airport after the mess after Sunday night's cancellation where they could not find rooms

Im glad you got into LAX though! I had to get a flight from last night from LAX->JFK in F and would have missed every connection, even if they interlined on UA.
I finally made it to LAX just now, sitting in Flagship lounge for the next 3 hours.
My return flight (which was just JFK-LAX-SAN in Business) was also delayed a day.
All I need to do is sign some real estate paperwork ! Blah!
Summary
DEN->LAX -> JFK (DEN-LAX cancelled) ba!
goes to:
DEN->LAX->JFK January 05
JFK->LAX->SAN January 05 (missed )
goes to
JFK->LAX->SAN January 06

I feel for you. Wife and I were stuck in NYC when JFK->SFO was canceled without any notice on the 29th. Just happened to log-in and found out. We were then stuck in MIA until Jan 1st after racing and failing to catch a connecting flight, and not being able to get on standby on any subsequent flights. What is with west coast to JFK right now?!
We got a voucher for hotel for one night (out of 3 nights that we spent delayed) and one $24 food voucher.
Best of luck getting back.

Also, I sure hope you've been chronicling this to AA's Twitter presence!

And for sure, keep a running commentary via Twitter -- it'll be fun to just pull the whole thread later in a nice letter to customer service regarding the EPIC service/operational failure you've gone thru.
