Last Flight Before Wedding

Your sister's wedding is tomorrow morning at 11 AM, and you're stranded at O'Hare International. The last flight home was overbooked, and now you're facing a battle with an airline representative who seems to take personal pleasure in wielding bureaucratic power. With your phone at 12% battery and your sister's increasingly panicked texts coming in, you must find a way onto any flight heading east tonight.
