He began pouring shots for frustrated travelers who were stuck in a line that stretched far outside the terminal doors.

"I bartend at an airport and I fully support this," one user wrote. "Travelers have been through it for weeks now! Nothing like a good pregame."

"Not all heroes wear capes," another user commented.

Video captured at other major hubs showed different ways travelers were passing the time, including a violinist performing for a packed crowd in Atlanta.

Still, the ongoing chaos for weeks has led to some conflicting advice regarding when travelers should arrive.

Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport has still been telling passengers to show up at least four hours early. 

In Ohio, John Glenn Columbus International Airport suggested that 90 minutes before a flight is the "sweet spot" to avoid crowds.
