What the majority of travelers ignore is that as more as passengers get displaced and contact their airlines for next steps to take, wait times can take too many long hours.

Therefore, the best alternative you can opt for is to tweet your airline, especially that some airlines are faster with Twitter when it comes to responding to their customer’s needs than phone agents. For instance, Delta airline keeps twitter handles for their customer service desks so that they can get in touch faster with their customers.

However, if you need a human in real time, you should call your airline’s help desk in another country that is not experiencing the same issues. Some of the major carriers that have international offices are American and United.

So, for more information, don’t hesitate to check your airline’s customer service page for the numbers and then hop on a good app like Skype to dial in.

In those instances, your credit card might offer trip delay, interruptions, and also cancellation insurance to help balance the costs.
