Rebuild a delayed-bag claim with Claude: the full email history for a new agent, and a receipts spreadsheet
Manuel Dominguez's suitcase never left Canada on a WestJet trip to Mexico City and Puerto Vallarta, and it took 10 days to get it back. When the case moved from one WestJet person to another, they asked Claude to pull the full history of emails with the first person so they could pass it on. To claim expenses, they photographed the receipts for clothes bought during those 10 days and asked Claude to build an Excel sheet from them to attach to the claim. It saved a lot of time, but WestJet paid only 60% of the original claim.

A Tom's Guide writer asked five chatbots to plan a four-day family trip from near Minneapolis to the Black Hills and Badlands, with gas and food stops, meals, lodging and under 1,400 miles in a borrowed minivan. Gemini was best at routing; ChatGPT did worst, with a broken map link and a needless night in the Badlands; Copilot was minimal; Claude was good apart from the route. DeepSeek won by basing the family in Custer State Park and planning every meal, and they followed its plan exactly, calling it a blast.

A writer and their partner had ChatGPT and Claude each plan one day in Tunis, Tozeur and Hammamet, then built their trip from both. ChatGPT's plan was ambitious and cinematic; its Tozeur day 'nearly flattened' them with a far longer drive than implied, and a sandstorm blocked the road to the film sets. Claude's was slower and added two stops they loved, the Great Mosque of Kairouan and El Jem amphitheatre. They say ChatGPT delivered better memories and Claude more comfort and culture.
