Standby for earlier flight with checked bags
I'm flying tomorrow on a late flight ATL NYC if it matters.
Would like to SDC to earlier flight but no far class availability.
I am now on standby for the earlier flight currently sitting at #3 for 15+ seats. Looks like I will clear.
I will need to check 2 bags for my trip. IF I make the earlier standby flight will my bags be transferred over to the earlier flight?
I'd gladly take the earlier flight even with a middle seat in the back but if the bags don't make it with me it doesn't help me.
Also if I do make the earlier flight and my bags do not would delta deliver them to me at home later this week?
PM if that matters for willingness of agents to grab bags from later flight.
Thanks.
