What pre-planned reasons do FTers use the semi-flex for?
I know I'm likely missing something, but willing to learn
Ive never used one unless it was the lowest fare class available!
Even at the outstations with a very high frequency such as FRA or BRU there is usually a few hours between flights, and for me I have only once or twice found myself back at an airport with enough time to get an earlier flight.
