They won't, per carriage rules they claim weather as an "act of god" or an event outside human control.

The airlines are actually getting a little looser on this. You can potentially get food and hotel vouchers depending upon the situation.

I just got 300 for not landing due to bad weather from JetBlue ; so got a 100 from delta for redirecting his flight

Plus food,cab and hotel vouchers for both

Weather means you don't get jack shit

I've had miles refunded for weather cancellation when I opted to drive rather than wait 24 hours.

My Delta flight was cancelled due to weather while all other flights were only delayed. Rebooked on another flight with 1 stop and 8 hour layover (initial flight was a direct). That flight got delayed until 1am and turned into a red eye. Tried getting into lounge with Amex platinum card, but I didn't have the card with me physically, got denied access although I had the Amex customer services guy on the phone to verify. Basically summarized this sad story with constructive criticism and got money reimbursed. Delta even called me back and then emailed me; they are also escalating my complaints to multiple teams. Will post again if anything interesting happens.
