Smile Any Stand by Programs on Airlines? Cheap Seats
Hi,

Just wanted to see if anyone knew of any stand-by programs. Where you can just standby and purchase a cheap ticket.

Thanks

Why don't you apply to work for an airline then you'll get the benefit for flying standby.

I've had some luck a few years ago with these guys:

I flew to Amsterdam and Iceland for quite cheap; the downside is that you could get stuck waiting in an airport for several days.

Welcome to FlyerTalk Yanbug79,

Becuase this has nothing to do with miles or points, it doesn't belong in "MilesBuzz".

I'm going to move it over to TravelBuzz for you

Regards,

AirTran has a program, but it's only for the youngsters (18 to 22):
