Use when the user needs a one-page rebooking command sheet with itinerary facts, official airline contacts, fare-rule notes, standby targets, refund or credit tracking, and a call or chat script." --- # Missed Flight Rebooking Kit ## Purpose Help the user recover from a missed flight, cancelled flight, major delay, misconnection, schedule change, denied boarding, or disrupted itinerary. Produce a one-page rebooking command sheet that turns scattered travel facts into fast, organized actions for airline app, airport desk, phone, chat, travel agency, or card-benefit follow-up. This is a prompt-only travel logistics workflow. It does not book flights, access airline accounts, handle passport or payment details, guarantee fares, or provide legal advice. ## Use This Skill When Use this skill when the user needs urgent itinerary recovery after: - Missing check-in, baggage cutoff, boarding, departure, or a connection. - Airline cancellation, mechanical delay, weather disruption, crew issue, air traffic delay, schedule change, or airport disruption. - Rebooking confusion across airline app, phone support, airport counter, online travel agency, corporate travel desk, or credit card travel portal. - Needing to compare next flights, standby options, alternate airports, overnight plans, refunds, credits, vouchers, receipts, or travel insurance documentation. Do not use it to evade fare rules through false claims, fabricate disruption facts, bypass security, or share passport or payment data in ordinary chat. ## Best Inputs Ask only for what is needed. If details are missing, proceed with placeholders and a focused question list. - Airline, booking channel, confirmation code or record locator label, ticket type if known, and whether the booking used points, cash, voucher, corporate travel, or an online travel agency. - Original itinerary: flight numbers, dates, departure and arrival airports, connection airports, travelers, checked bags, seat needs, and final destination deadline. - What happened: missed departure, late arrival, cancellation, delay length, denied boarding, missed connection, schedule change, or weather event. - Current location, whether the user is landside or airside, bag status, immigration or security status, and whether they can reach a service desk. - Candidate flights, acceptable airports, latest arrival time, seat constraints, baggage constraints, budget ceiling, lodging needs, and ground transport constraints. - Any airline notifications, receipts, ticket numbers, case numbers, voucher offers, refund forms, travel insurance requirements, or card benefit documentation. ## Workflow 1. **Capture itinerary facts.** Summarize booking channel, airline, flight numbers, airports, travelers, current location, bag status, and deadline at destination. 2. **Classify the disruption.** Identify whether this is user-missed, airline-caused, weather or force majeure, missed connection, cancellation, delay, denied boarding, or schedule change. 3. **Check official rules and channels.** Direct the user to verify change options in the official airline app or site, then consider airport desk, phone, chat, travel agency, corporate desk, or card portal as applicable. 4. **Rank workable flights.** Build a target list with same-airline, alliance, alternate airport, standby, overnight, and refundable backup options when appropriate. 5. **Prepare the agent script.** Create a concise call or chat script with facts, desired flights, constraints, and questions about fees, fare difference, standby, baggage, seats, refunds, credits, vouchers, meals, hotels, and receipts. 6. **Track money and proof.** Log fare-rule notes, change fees, fare differences, credits, refund eligibility, vouchers, receipts, case numbers, and reimbursement documents. 7. **Plan next actions.** Create a timed sequence for app check, desk queue, phone or chat, backup booking decision, bag handling, lodging, ground transport, and follow-up claims. 8. **Protect sensitive data.** Keep passport numbers, full payment details, account passwords, and one-time codes out of chat; use official airline or booking-channel portals only. ## Output Format Return a one-page command sheet in this order: 1. **Situation Snapshot** | Field | Detail | |---|---| | Current location | | | Original airline and flight | | | Booking channel | | | Disruption type | | | Bag status | | | Destination deadline | | | Best next channel | | | Backup decision time | | 2. **Itinerary Facts** | Item | Detail | |---|---| | Confirmation or ticket reference label | | | Travelers | | | Original route | | | Current route status | | | Final destination need | | | Constraints | | 3. **Official Channel Checklist** | Channel | What to check | Status | Notes | |---|---|---|---| | Airline app or site | Rebook, standby, cancellation, refund, credits | | | | Airport desk | Same-day rebooking, bags, seats, vouchers | | | | Phone or chat | Target flights, waiver, fare rules, case number | | | | Booking agency or portal | Ticket control, refund, exchanges | | | | Card or insurance benefit | Delay proof, receipts, claim deadline | | | 4. **Ranked Flight Targets** | Rank | Flight or route | Departure | Arrival | Why it works | Risks or fees | |---|---|---|---|---|---| 5. **Fare-Rule and Standby Notes** | Topic | Current answer | Question to ask | |---|---|---| | Change fee | | | | Fare difference | | | | Standby eligibility | | | | Same-day confirmed change | | | | Bags and seat handling | | | | Refund or credit eligibility | | | | Voucher or expense support | | | 6. **Call or Chat Script** Provide a concise script that states the itinerary facts, disruption, current location, desired outcome, ranked flight targets, bag status, deadline, and exact questions. Include a closing line that asks for written confirmation, case number, fare details, and next action. 7. **Refund, Credit, and Receipt Tracker** | Item | Amount | Source | Proof needed | Deadline | Status | |---|---:|---|---|---|---| 8. **Next Actions** | Time | Action | Channel | Done | |---|---|---|---| 9. **Open Questions** List missing facts that could change rebooking, standby, refund, or credit options. ## Style Rules - Be fast, factual, and command-sheet concise. - Use airport codes, flight numbers, dates, times, and time zones when provided. - Separate known facts from assumptions. - Give official-channel verification steps before quoting or relying on rules. - Prioritize actions that preserve options: app rebook, agent contact, standby listing, bag handling, receipts, and backup booking deadline. ## Safety Boundary - Verify the official airline app, official airline website, official phone number, airport desk, booking agency, corporate travel desk, or card portal before sharing any account, itinerary, passport, or payment information. - Do not ask the user to paste passport numbers, full payment card numbers, account passwords, one-time codes, full ticket numbers, known traveler numbers, or full date-of-birth details into chat. - Do not book, cancel, refund, or pay on the user's behalf. - Do not advise lying about missed-flight causes, medical needs, elite status, payment method, or disruption facts. - Do not guarantee rebooking, standby, waiver, voucher, refund, hotel, meal, compensation, or insurance outcomes. - For international travel, visa, entry, immigration, minor travel, medical emergency, or legal compensation questions, recommend checking official airline, airport, government, insurer, or qualified professional sources. ## Example Prompts - "I missed my flight and need to reach Denver tonight. Build a rebooking command sheet." - "My connection was cancelled. Help me rank replacement flights and draft the airline chat." - "The airline app offers a terrible route. What should I ask the airport desk?" - "I missed boarding with checked bags. Make a plan for rebooking and bag handling." - "Track my flight credit, refund, receipts, and next actions after a cancellation."
