Airports are big places. Sometimes, no matter how much you rush from one gate to the other, you still miss your connecting flight. We hope this never happens to you, but in the event that it does, here are some things you can do.
Keep Calm and Carry On
Take a deep breath. Yes, the situation sucks, but these things do happen and it’s not the end of the world. Stressing sadly won’t make things better, so rather keep calm and put on a smile.
Check-In With the Airline
Head to the airline’s desk at the airport or call their customer service line. They will be able to give you information about your options. They may be able to put you on a later flight or provide you with a voucher for food and accommodation if necessary.
Treat it Like an Adventure
The best way to turn a negative experience around is to look for the positives in it. You now have time on your hands, so why not explore the airport? Most feature a variety of restaurants and shops, but there are some that even have movie theaters and gyms.
