In Chicago last month, a United Airlines flight bound for London was poised for departure, yet 13 passengers were still en route from Costa Rica. The airline anticipated they would miss the flight by a mere seven minutes. Typically, this would prompt a rush to reschedule. However, with the aid of a novel artificial intelligence tool dubbed ConnectionSaver, the aircraft remained grounded, allowing the passengers—and their checked luggage—to catch up, ensuring the timely arrival in London.
