Having been "newarked" (I believe this is a new verb) out of my flight to TPA today, I am checking the PDA site watching the rest of the family (who were wisely routed via CLE instead of EWR) make their way south.

1529 to TPA has every seat full, but 3 standbying hopefuls (not from my own clan) got left behind:

Flight Standby List:
First Class: Full | Economy Class: Full

Cleared Standby Customers: Flight Standby List
NAME SEAT
CIA, D. 7C
CIA, R. 14F
GRA, J. 21E
HER, B. 27A
SHA, M. 11C
ZEI, F. 12D

NAME
1. SOL, J.
2. SOL, N.
3. SOL, R.

J, N and R SOL, you have my sympathy. Those three letters of your last name tell the whole story. :(

Yes, I can guarantee they not the only SOL's on standby today...
