I think several of you are missing the point on the standby question. Same day standbys are legal before and after but there is no guarantee that a seat will be available. If all coach seats are taken in subsequent flights, I don't believe there is a technical obligation to accomodate you.

A knowledgeable NW employee in this thread has commented that if coach is full and FC has availability, a coach passenger is to be upgraded in order to free up space for the standby passenger. Under no circumstances are non-revs to be put in FC ahead of the revenue standby, even if coach is full.
