I got an email not even 24 hours...

I got an email not even 24 hours before the flight that my connected flight was delayed from 2 hours to 12.5 hours. I recently had an open heart surgery and also was traveling with three little kids one of them autistic. I contacted the airline and told me that they can’t do anything and that I should get an hotel which I tried to do but unfortunately at the airport told me that I can’t leave the airport.

Flight was delayed over...

Flight was delayed over 7 hours - scheduled to depart at 10:40am but ultimately left past 5pm. I had to wait at the airport for that time as there was no clear communication of the flight delays. The meal voucher only covered 1 meal for €15 and there was no consistency in the process. I was scheduled to arrive in Washington DC for my stopover at 2pm but arrived closer to 10pm, which was also delayed due to lack of gate access when we landed in IAD. I had to opt for a more expensive travel route (Uber for $65) rather than public transportation which was limited at that hour. To add continued grievances with my delays, my flight to my final destination JFK has been delayed an extra 1h30 min, ultimately making this journey home from Rome to be 30 hours long.

Not only were we delayed...

Not only were we delayed 10 hours in Rome, but also the staff at the information desk were not helpful. We were also on the taxi for an hour after boarding and after landing in DC, we were not allowed off the plane for an hour after landing. I was out of the airport at 11 pm in IAD airport. Also, my bag was not coming out on the belt and when I saw other flight bags coming out I assumed my bag was lost, when I went to ask for help to report my lost bag. No one was there to help, the worker there said there were not ITA airways workers available to help me with finding my bag. Luckily in the last momment my bag came out with a different flight tag on it. I assume that is what caused the extra delay. (My whole party had received there luggage 30 mins earlier if not more),

We waited 3 hours to be served at check in kiosk once we were told flight cancelled. The check in clerk explained that the airline would not pay for any accommodation in Florence. We were then bussed to a 2 star hotel 100 km outside of Rome where we arrived at 12am. The next morning we had to get up at 5.30am to catch a second bus to Rome airport. It was too early to eat breakfast at the hotel. We arrived at Rome airport at 7am. The bus driver was not able to give us any info what we had to do or where we had to go. We luckily found our way to ITA ticketing where we waited for another hour to get replacement flights. The only replacement was a Qatar flight with two stops with our arrival at Cape Town estimated to be 7.30pm one day later. All in all the delay was 30 hours.

The boarding pass I submitted was my first flight, and due to its delay I couldn't catch the second flight, which directly caused me to not be able to check in in Catania that day, and lost my accommodation for the day, which cost about €275.

The arline put me up at a hotel (name Marini Park Hotel). They asked me to call a taxi service (Samarcanda) giving me their telephone number and codes to be given to the driver for avaling free transport to the hotel and back to the airport. The taxi service did not repond despite my repeatedly calling them over an extended period. As a result I could not avail the airline's free taxi service to and from the hotel, and had to engage a private taxi and pay for it. I have collect the receipt for the onward taxi (airport to hotel) and have uploaded its image. The hotel was supposed to offer us dinner and breakfast. But I was told by them that they did not offer dinner. They did give us breakfast though.
