you can do a CPFP from your side to bump it, if you are the destination of the payment. Use Electrum or Sparrow and just click on that pending tx and bump the fee with an UTXO from your wallet.

It's not mine. It's my noob friend trying to send BTC from Relai into cold storage.

Send them some BTC (to their storage address) that’s enough for them to use both the incoming tx from Relai and the tx you send in a new transaction to themselves, with a fee high enough to get the (I assume) low fee Relai transaction confirmed.

That's what I'm thinking... Just not sure how much to send.
Also he's in the opposite time zone and I'll have to walk him right through it.

Depends on the size of the Relai tx as well - if it's like 1/2 inputs and 1 output, would be covered by around 14000 sats at this moment.
If the tx from Relai includes a lot of inputs and outputs, it will obviously get more expensive.

It has over 100 inputs....

Then I would suggest NOT going the CPFP route. The size of the tx coming from Relai would also make any accelerator service very expensive.
What is the fee paid by the tx in sats/vbyte?

I guess it could get purged and he can re broadcast in a few weeks.

or he could keep it alive re-broadcasting every 2 days with this https://bitaccelerate.com
