Going back about 20 years, I was non-revving on WN from ABQ to LAX traveling on an ID (industry discount) ticket. One of the non-stop flights canceled that day. There was no way I was getting to LAX that evening on a non-stop or a direct flight. The gate agent rerouted me to BUR (with a connection at LAS). I had to drive to LAX to pick up my bags, skis and boots.
