I can get request a same day stand-by for the flight leaving at 5:44 pm, but I’m unsure whether it’s wise.
At which point would they usually confirm the change? And if they do, would I immediately lose my seat on my current flight?
What happens if I’m delayed at immigration and customs and I miss the new flight?
Go to CS desk AFTER you clear immigration/security and see if there is still time to
make it to new flight....If there is any availability you should be able to get on. This
is the safest way....
