ChatGPT helped a traveler get an airline hotel voucher and €400 compensation after a delayed flight.

• The airline rebooked the passenger to the next day but initially refused to provide a hotel, claiming none were available.
• The user asked ChatGPT, which pointed out that EU law required hotel and dinner coverage; the traveler then used that information to push back.
• After checking hotel availability independently, the airline eventually agreed to cover the hotel.
• ChatGPT also helped draft the compensation claim and guided the user through the process.
• The user says the paid subscription paid for itself, while the free version gave weaker, incorrect guidance and said €250 instead of the correct €400.
