A friend is flying from Manila to Chicago. He was supposed to go via Seoul. Somehow the airline rerouted him via Dubai 🤯
So now he's stuck in Dubai and having to take shelter because quite predicably there are certain events happening.
How does an airline screw up so badly that the solution is to route people the other direction around the world knowing the layover might become indefinite?
