Flying Standby
Does anyone know how the new security requirement (Only ticket passengers allowed past security) will effect someone who wants to conduct a business meeting in the Admirals Club or other Airline Lounge or wants to leave a day early and willing to go standby.

What if you have an airline pass? I have a Friends & Family DL pass and I cannot make a reservation. I have to fly standby.
Loophole?? For the day you wish to go to the airport , buy the cheapest one-way refundable ticket that you can find. Either use it towards another ticket or apply for a refund.
