I'm not sure if the standby list includes revenue standby/oversales or just nonrevs but it is of some use. The DL members here are extremely helpful in providing load info but just like on NRTP, a green flight can turn bright red quick. On a few flights, I've even been seated in Comfort +, their version of Main Cabin Extra.

Thanks for the tip...

I'll check into it in a few days--a wee bit early for real number (weather aside!)

It looks like you are listed on those flights already for the 27^th.At this time there 40+ seats SEA-SLC and 8 seats SLC-IDA. Sometimes SEA-SLC really fills up with non-rev’s.Flights to PIH are BAD.There are also 40+ seats on flt 1608 SEA-SLC at 7:25am if you wanted an extra 1 ½ hour sleep.You can easily make a 30 minute layover in SLC.Again, check numbers again Sunday night.

Once again thank you for the info! And the extra hour really doesn't bug me either way as I work the night before till about 2am. How about the flights to ida are they looking horrible or decent enough I should barring a cancled flight get on?

I would check back Sunday night for better numbers, right now there are 21 seats available across all 4 SLC-IDA flights with most of those between the 1st two flights of the day. Numbers seem OK but I do not know how popular this route is.

Hi, all another quick question. So it only checked me in for my SEA-SLC flight do I need to check in for my SLC-IDA or will that happen when I get onto the SEA-SLC flight

The DL flight to SLC should be good with a couple of dozen seats and you are #12 But the SLC-IDA does not look so hot. between the 1st two flights are 8 seats and 12 listed.
Can you fly Alaska? Catch the 6:15 am flt to DEN (seat chart shows 23 seats) If you can get to DEN there are 8 seats on the 11:16am DEN-IDA
if you can use AA to get to DEN there are 5 seats on the 3:10pm flt DEN-IDA
If you try the 11am SLC-IDA DL flight and get rolled over and the gate agent says next flight (2pm) is BAD you could do UA at 12:01pm to DEN with a couple dozen seats to catch the 3:10pm flt.
Good Luck.

Thank you all I mean it!!! I mean if I don't get on the 11 or 2pm and the agent says the 5pm or is it 6pm is a no go i can rent a car I have no problem with that it's only a 4 hours drive.

I said it from the very beginning, J19 has the temperament to handle the uncertainties of non-rev travel.

Keep Calm and Travel On my friend.
