Then there is the Cyclocross happening around the same time in New Orleans which is a 3 hour flight. She has made an enquiry with your airline for flights, to both Auburn and New Orleans.

The Prediction

From her social media you learn that she was considering the Cyclocross. But she isn’t sure she can fly back in time to attend an important client meeting, the next morning. Besides she is swamped by work already and cannot spend much time planning of the trip.

The Prompt

Within a fraction of a second, your system is able to the sales staff that there is a 12 pm flight to New Orleans and there is a late night 1 am flight at back to Salt Lake City from New Orleans. But that there are no first class seats on the flight. Can Jane be persuaded to fly economy and return late at night, for the morning meeting? You marketing manager decides and instructs staff to make Jane an offer.

The Action
