What type of delay? If it's out of the airlines control let it go
Basically the flight came in (from whatever destination) with 26 people needing wheel chair assistance. Took forever to get the passengers out of the flight, which led to boarding delay for us. Hilarious when I think about the reason as it looks like all the oldies had a field day. Still, that's airline's scheduling problem. Got home way too late and I am cranky now

26 wheelchairs is usually an inbound from a Florida retiree destination like West Palm or Ft Myers. Doesn't explain the 3 hr delay after boarding though. If that was weather related they don't have to do anything but probably will give at least a token amount of miles. If they otherwise screwed up operationally they might compensate an it better.
The delay occurs because the plane loses its normal departure slot. On a busy airport it's difficult to manage a slot again quickly.
That said, file a complain. Normally, airlines give $200 in travel voucher for a delay in excess of 3 hours caused by them.
