Thread: Family listing every single day this week - how to tell if they made it on the flight

Also, you can have a seat assignment and not make theflight. That would happen if you checkedin online, or at a kiosk/ticket counter, and they assigned seats but you nevermade it to the gate. Not sure if theairport standby list removes the seat assignment or not. I am sure it would if they needed the seatfor the next standby person but if there were enough seats for everyone notsure what it would show.

I have been at the gate with a seat assignment and somethingcome up and had to leave, I had no time to inform anyone I was leaving. Once they call your name and you do notrespond they will reassign those seats if needed. Not the best thing to do as it wastes time asthey see you are not boarded, call your name, wait, call your name again, waitthen call the next inline waiting for seats.

As R.M. stated, I have seen people list for multipleflights, lets say ATL-LAX and also ATL-SLC-LAX because the direct flight isiffy and the indirect flight departure time is within 5 or 10 minutes of thedirect flight you would not have time to list yourself if you missed the directflight. You are not supposed to do thisbut in cases like this would you?
