hi,
But what about this case: If i know ahead of time that my original flight is delayed (awaiting inbound aircraft or w/e) and there is an earlier flight. I need to reach my destination in time in order to make a connecting flight. Would continental still charge the $50 to be on stand by for the earlier flight or would this also be an "involuntary standby"? If the $50 still applies , would'nt it cost continental WAYY more in hotel fees/transportation since it was their fault that i missed my connecting flight and not weather/ ATC? (this is taken that i refuse to pay the 50$ )
