What to Do When Your Flight Is Canceled or Delayed

This summer, with more people traveling than in recent years, expect some flight delays and cancellations. 

But don’t panic. 

Do what I do — if your flight is canceled or delayed, don’t wait in that long line at the airport. 

While you’re standing there, call the airline directly. 

And better yet — if you’re flying an airline that has a partner airline, call them. 

Many of those partner airlines can also rebook your flight. 

You’ll get to your destination faster and with a lot less stress.
