I think it is unreasonable to expect Qatar to pay for the hotel... they were not to blame for the delay and the Jetblue ticket was an entirely separate booking. Sadly, you are correct about the low standards of service in the US airline industry... there was a time when they were the best, they now don't rate at all. Skytrax illustrates their sad decline... I do however, think that Qatar could have done more for a good customer and at least waive the $195 fee.
