I am hoping that if we both just show-up at the same time, being family will give us a little better chance getting them squeezing us in together. Or at least letting one of us to wait, as a "walk-in".
We will not mind waiting, as a walk-in, which would be a lot better than getting turned away because they have reached their daily walk-in quota. We were going to endeavor to be walk-ins together, in early July, if I had not found one appointment.
Anyone have any insights?
My husband and I were in a similar situation. We were both scheduled for SFO in September, but I found an earlier appointment (early evening on 6/24) and grabbed it. Based on what I read on Flyertalk, he came along to see if they would see him, too.
There was a sign on the door saying no more walk-ins for the day, but I asked anyway. Both the agent checking me in and the one who called me in for the interview responded with "we'll see," but they ended up calling him in as the next interview after mine. There was no one else waiting at the time.
I hope you have the same good luck!
