So I breezed through security, went up to the gate and was told that there were too many people on standby already ahead of me, and no seats were available.
Oh well... unfortunately my flight boarded on time but immediately the captain announced that we will be pushing back an hour and fifteen minutes late because of the weather in NY.... kinda made me wish I made that standby flight.

How does one check the seat availabilty on B6 flights? I want to try strandby on Sunday (JFK-IAD), but the prior flight is over 6 hours earlier. Don't want to go if there's no chance of making it.
