I'm not sure if I'm asking in the right place, however I'm looking more for experience in VDBs on CO, so this seems to collect those groups of FT'ers.

I've got a MR tomorrow involving 4 segments. Segment 2 is quickly filling up and if all the standby pax are cleared, there are only 3 Y seats left (F filled up a long time ago). Here's hoping to a potential VDB. My question is:

As this is a MR, I've got a quick turnaround on to Segment 3 (45 minutes), so a VDB would result in me missing this connection as well. That being said, is it worth it to volunteer, as the CO GA will clearly be able to see my future flights. Or, does taking the VDB mean I've had a missed connection, and I can deal with that when I arrive at Airport 3?

I'm also fully prepared to hear that this might be an itin. to NOT try and VDB on

Thanks in advance for everyone's help - if this should be moved to another thread, please don't hesitate to let me know.
