Rebook a delayed flight connection mid-flight
OpenAI's Dot chatted with Alaska, Delta and KLM, found a new route and rebooked Denis for free after he approved, while he was still on the plane.
Done withDots
- What they did
- Denis gave Dot from OpenAI access to its own computer. While he was still on the delayed Alaska flight, the agent simultaneously messaged Alaska, Delta, and KLM, located a new routing, and requested the free rebooking. Denis approved the change.
- How it went
- The agent secured the rebooking and avoided an overnight stay in Seattle. It later repeated the process mid-Atlantic when the Seattle-Munich leg was also delayed.
