Reading the policies of Southwest at http://www.southwest.com/about_swa/customer_service_commitment/customer.pdf 1. Depends (see the link above). They may either pay for your hotel or arrange for a discounted rate. 2. Southwest does not book its passengers on other airlines so they would be given space on the next available Southwest flight. 3. No, although you can get a refund of your ticket price.

Any idea what happened with those diverted passengers? Specifically: 1. Were they put up overnight at WN's expense? 2. Were they back on the first space-available-WN flight to MDW? (as opposed to being put on any airline and perhaps shipped to ORD) 3. I'd imagine those passengers made for the plane being oversold. Would WN have put them on another airline? - Blaine FWA
