Why it matters

Trips involve lots of searching, forms and waiting on hold. This is an example of an agent handling that busywork so the traveller only has to approve the result. It is one of 63 sightings filed under Travel & Booking on Agent Sightings (number 1 by interest), and one of 29 involving ChatGPT.

How you could try it

Here is a reusable prompt, written by us in our own words, that captures the task. Paste it into ChatGPT or any similar agent and adjust the details to your situation.

Plan: win a flight refund dispute. Compare 2–3 options (cost, timing, tradeoffs), recommend one, and do not book or pay yet.

Tip: Have the agent list options with prices and cancellation rules, and only book once you have said yes to one.
