That's a really tricky one, Charlotte. I've had the same happen on a much smaller scale, but it's not ever any fun at any level. I think the best one *can* do is to apologize to the speaker, to ask if you can record it on video (all tight shots) for their speaking collection, and then maybe offer even better transportation back to the airport and an upgrade to 1st class (if that wasn't your original plan). There's not a lot of ways to fix that problem once it starts, so you have to begin the “exit gracefully” protocol instead.

Great post, and some very useful comments so a big thanks to all!

Currently in the planning stages of my first conference, so this is spot on for ideas and feedback. I’m lucky in the fact that the city where I live has never had a tech / business / online conference, so am hoping it will be a success.
