Use ChatGPT to rebuild a trip after a cancellation
When a trip was disrupted, ChatGPT Work mode found new flights, added a rental car, and collected the revised plans in one place.
- What they did
- After a flight was cancelled, the traveler turned on ChatGPT Work mode and asked it to sort out the replacement travel. The agent looked for other flights, lined up a rental car, and gathered the updated itinerary details together.
- How it went
- The whole job took about 30 minutes, rather than more than an hour. It still caused a hassle, but it was easier to handle than doing everything manually.
- Tips
- Give the agent the route, date, destination, and the latest time you can arrive. Make it stop for your approval before it books, pays, or finalizes anything.
