Business travel is never predictable. Tight schedules, early flights, and last-minute client calls are part of the routine—but the worst disruption of all? Flight delays.
I was on my way to a major client meeting when my flight was suddenly delayed by four hours. It was frustrating, but I wasn’t just going to sit there doing nothing. I had a critical proposal due in two hours, and my laptop battery was at 25%. Finding an available charging station in a crowded airport felt impossible.
Thankfully, I had ZERO in my carry-on.
I plugged my laptop into ZERO’s USB-C PD port, instantly stabilizing my power situation. While I worked, my phone wirelessly charged on ZERO’s MagSafe-compatible surface, ensuring I’d have enough battery to send emails and take client calls. The best part? ZERO’s compact and travel-friendly design meant I could work from anywhere in the terminal—no need to hover awkwardly by an outlet or fight over a charging station.
As the minutes passed, I got into the zone. The delay no longer felt like wasted time—it became a productive work session. By the time I hit send on my proposal, I had a deep sense of relief. The deadline was met, the client was happy, and I still had plenty of battery left for my flight.
Without ZERO, this situation could have been a nightmare. Instead, it proved that no matter where I am, I can stay productive and stress-free.
