How It Works

From "now what?" to "I've got this"

Three steps from stranded to sorted.

1

Tell us your situation

Start by telling us what airport you're at, what airline you're flying, and what you need right now. A place to stay? Food? Transport? Help understanding what the airline may provide? We'll tailor the information to your specific disruption.

  • Select your airport — we currently support Chicago O'Hare (ORD) and Chicago Midway (MDW), with more airports coming soon.
  • Choose what you need help with — hotel, food, transport, vouchers, or rebooking
  • No sign-up, no account, no personal data required
2

Get your personalized guide

We assemble everything you need to know in one place — no more juggling five browser tabs or calling around. Every piece of information is verified, unbiased, and presented clearly.

  • Hotels near the airport with shuttle info, rates, and amenities
  • Restaurants open now, including late-night and voucher-accepting spots
  • Transportation options — shuttle, rideshare, taxi, public transit
  • Plain-English explanation of what the airline may provide and your rights under federal rules

Make your move

With all the information in front of you, you can quickly decide what to do. Book a hotel room, grab a meal, catch a shuttle — or talk to the airline knowing what you're entitled to under its policies and federal rules.

  • Compare options side by side with real prices and distances
  • Book hotels and transport directly (no fees, no markup)
  • Know exactly what to ask the airline at the counter
  • Save your plan and come back to it later
