An urgent charter solution was needed to get a race team from Atlanta to the Grand Rapids when their commercial flight was delayed. 
Racing to the Grand Rapids during a global outage
A businessman in Atlanta asked for our help when a global software outage caused widespread flight disruption. His son was running a race in the Grand Rapids that weekend, but had arrived at the airport to discover his team’s commercial flight was delayed and might be cancelled altogether. With the group at risk of forfeiting the race if they couldn’t get there in time, an urgent charter solution was needed to get them in the air fast.
