It's been a while since I've traveled regularly and thought I'd ask.
Is there any points compensation for a United flight that is delayed 3 hours? The only thing they told us was the arriving flight was late and gave us some chips at the gate. They delayed 1 hr, then 90 min, then 2 hr, then 2.5 hr, now 3hrs
If I had known it was a 3hr delay I would have switched to another flight.
I have United gold status if that matters
