Frontier MIA-BWI delayed flight by almost 12 hours. (6:17 am pushed to 5 pm)

Filed DOT complaint and VISA infinite claim, should I even bother confronting Frontier?

UA flight from FRA was cancelled yesterday due to mechanical issues. I got an email from “customer appreciation” with a link to receive compensation in which they gave a $100 ETC. I immediately contacted them requesting EU 261 compensation and today got offered 600 EUR, 50K miles, or $1000 ETC.
I think the initial email is intended to be deceiving, so most costumers will just be happy that United proactively offered compensation, not knowing they’re legally entitled to much more.

Yes. If the airline is proactively offering you something, you most likely are entitled to a lot more compensation
