The refugees who were flown from New Orleans to Chattanooga on Sunday had a well-known person along.
Former Vice President Al Gore and his son were on the chartered flight.
"I understand that Vice President Gore paid for everything," Todd Womack of the mayor's office said.
Sheriff John Cupp said he spoke briefly with Mr. Gore.
He said, "He was not visiting with the media. He was busy working to help the refugees."
Sheriff Cupp said it was an American Airlines plane, and he said a number of American Airlines attendants were along to help.
