Can you see how many people are on standby?

Basically, I'm hoping to travel standby on this route as an employee of a third party aviation company. I would like to understand my chances of getting on board!

Can you offer any more info?

Thanks,
Jim
Only EK staff can see that within 72 hours of departure. Y4 means 4 seats available for sale, this means they could already be oversold by 15 (i.e. willing to oversell by 19 total). Given the above I'd say your chances as a 3rd party staff standby would be slightly below zero, unfortunately.
