Airlines often mishandle situations such as denied boarding due to documentation issues, overbooking, or system errors, and then provide invalid rebooking that leaves travelers stranded at connecting hubs. Passengers face thousands of dollars in unexpected costs, missed critical appointments (e.g., medical), and severe emotional distress. Current airline customer service processes are inadequate, lacking proper training and accountability. This unsolved problem calls for a solution that guarantees valid rebooking and compensates for damages.
