As for the fee it's waived for US elites only I believe, so you would need US elite status. Since standby is not supposed to be allowed if there are empty seats available for move-up, that's only an option if there are no-shows or missed connections.

If this is true, then why did the customer service lady charge the missus 150 for moving up to my flight, from later in the day? It was within the 6 hour window!
What did I miss?
