That can be easily solved if you actually want to find out what's going on, or maybe you don't want to.

By the way, was reading articles and came on to a thread where an UA airplane that's bound to TPE from SFO via NRT did not operate to TPE due to Typhoon Sinlaku for two consecutive flights and left passengers in NRT un-attended because their ground crew needs to take off from work. They ground crew in NRT basically told the passengers to stay in the airport because they can offer nothing to the passengers because it's weather related and flights won't resume till the 16th (and you are not guaranteed a seat). The crew won't even help to search for lodging (and they are simply transiting travelers), but their ticket will stay opened. Government personnel of Taiwan in Tokyo had to help some of the passengers to find hotels to live, but there are some students who are on tight budget who stayed in Narita Airport till a CI arranged aircraft to arrive to pick up the passengers strained in NRT by UA. I wonder how is CI going to deal with UA on the tickets and transportation... or CI is just taking a loss by transporting passengers back to Taipei...?
