1. DL retirees will always get those buddy passes.

2. Sat afternoon service to LGA is not that hectic as a Friday. Traveling to CVG on a Friday will be sort of complicated. Too many businessmen returning home from work. Keep in mind CVG is one of DL's HUB.

3. DL NEED a tentative traveling date even though these are standby tickets because DL CANNOT issue an open ticket. You can change the date at your leisure but if you change destination a $25 fee will be assessed plus the fare difference.

4. Try DL's Simplyfares. Sometimes you are better off buying those CONFIRMED and avoid the hazzle of going standby.

My opinions are based on my experience, and I can tell you I have a lot, over 29 years.
