I've gotten a call from [livejournal.com profile] being_homeless - she's gotten injured during a medical emergency on her flight into Chicago today. After being pleasantly insistent that she be seen, the airline put in a cab to the local hospital, where she is now waiting for her turn. She wasn't the medical emergency, but in getting clear to allow access to the crewmembers, she's borked a knee up, tripping over items left in the aisle (*face smacks*).

The airline is filling the report, but there won't be a claim number or anything a hospital can tie to for payment until Monday. (This is Southwest, BTW. They've been wonderful. But they are staying in business through cost-cutting measures like this, don't forget.)

She has at least two people there who were planning to host her while she was there, but she may need more assistance. She's not certain how she is going to get to them now that her original plan of travel from the airport has changed.

If you have Crystal's number and can help, I suggest you call her.

If you're in Chicago, and can help us out, email me and I will call you back.

She did, and it is -

I don't know if you aren't closer - she was talking that most of the people she knew were at least an hour out.

Any suggestions?

The only thing I can suggest, if she's stuck taking a cab, would be to take a cab back to the airport. Airport rates are usually fixed, not metered*,and then she can go on with her original transportation plans.

*This may be different if you're close to an airport. I'm not certain.
