dardoz · 2004-07-14 07:35:35

Any1 know anything or had any experience of going up to the airport with a suitcase early in the morning and waiting for a cancellation? Who do I need to ask to be put on a waiting list etc or is this method successful

As far as I'm aware, this facility is now available to airline staff only for security reasons.

No. Commercial passengers can still be waitlisted.

I think it depends on the airline.

You need to be very flexible to fly standby aswell. My brother flew standby to and from the US a few weeks ago, and spent six days trying to get out of Chicago.
