I could even see a situation where the companion went ahead and boarded not knowing if the other would show up or not.
I understand the "rules", but what in practice does WN do in these situations?
Talked with a SWA manager and they have been know to charge the walk-up fare at the gate and have also revoked companion passes. How they caught it, he didn't say. I certainly wouldn't chance it!
