Waiting to hear about loads from my Dl friend. She has 30 years w Delta so that should help. Can you upgrade the buddy pass to a higher standby priority? Are you finding better points of departure? I assume you can gate check luggage once you are cleared to fly.
We are going to Munich (via Gatwick if necessary and then Easyjet to Munich) next Saturday, then returning from Venice (more likely Milan or Pisa) June 11. Just as said earlier, flexibility is key. There are several low-cost carriers in Europe-Easyjet, Ryanair, just to name a couple. These can be a great help in getting to your final destination.
