Put the employees in a rental car and have them drive.

Safety laws prohibit crews from working extensive hours. Makes sense. You’d not want pilots or mechanics working 60-80 hour weeks.

First off, I may be wrong, but I thought the 4 employees were cabin crew, not pilots or mechanics.

Second, the drive from Chicago to Louisville is only around 4 hours. The flight takes a little over an hour, plus the plane was two hours late. So they got there only a hour earlier than they would if they drove.

If the drive time was a problem, get them a driver (Uber?) to take them to Louisville.

Got to be way cheaper than the bad publicity they got.
