I wish AS would change this. One of the most aggravating of the unnecessary policies in the airline industry.
OK, then how do people fly on a later flight (connecting) if they miss the original one & the luggage is gone? Am I stuck in PDX forever? Standby maybe?

Or, if I don't show up for the 6:30AM flight will they pull my bags off the plane when they realize I didn't check in?
