Man to mia via phl today cancelled

[EwoodCSI]

We had a 3 hour delay last week, but now a nightmare awaiting our Son and Daughter to join us in Orlando.

A735 from Man to Phl delayed yesterday for 5 hours. AA rearranged their connecting flight Phl to Mco from 3.54pm to 8.59pm. This was their last flight of the day and they CANCELLED!

They have been at Phl all night, have been on standby for 7am and 8.10am flights with no luck and are now waiting to see if they can get 11.10am flight. AA have been appalling! :

OP enjoy your holiday x

Hotel was nice- only downside was they hadn’t made the sofa bed up or left any bedding- asked twice at reception - also for towels as there was only 1 in the room? Got the towels, they never came with bedding so in the end I slept in the dressing gown on top of the duvet (had no cover on) whilst dh and the kids had the bed. Had good nights sleep. Now sat at Heathrow waiting for Miami flight which thankfully is showing on time! I’ll update re claim to AA when I get some news. Thanks x

document everything and keep receipts to anything that have cost you because of your flights being delayed. while the airline cant do anything about the hotel, they booked you in it as a kind of apology and hope that it ease any aggravation caused. its not difficult for the airline to let the hotel know that you be treated with more care due to the circumstance. (id make sure this is all in any claim you make with the airline)

hopefully with this out of the way, you can enjoy your holiday and have a magical time.

What a nitemare for you all- hope they manage to get on a flight soon and join you and you enjoy the rest of your hols. I found AA to be really unhelpful - BA were brilliant in how they handled everything. Please let us know how you go on.x

Thank you for your concern. They made the flight arriving in Orlando at 2pm, even that was late! It took my Son to post details of what had happened on social media for them to receive boarding cards within seconds - unbelievable

We are now enjoying our well earned holiday; hope you are too.

Just to update on this!
I emailed American Airlines last night and got a reply today offering 600 euros cash or 800 dollars voucher. Needless to say we’re taking the cash!
Was very easy to do - and to be honest once we’d been there a day it didn’t feel like we’d lost a day of our hols. Just waiting for BA now tonpay our for the cancelled plane on the way home now (honestly if you ever end up on a flight with us I’d change! &#129315

Thank you for your update. That gives me some hope as I too have contacted AA regarding compensation. I don't know what to expect as we had a 3 hour delay from on our connecting flight (Man-Phl-Mco) and our kids had 5 hour delay on Man flight, a cancelled Phl flight and an overnight stay at the airport! Assuming, we receive an offer I will let you know.
