You are set for an NRT-SEA flight but then LAX falls apart and all the nonrevs flood SEA. Now sitting up front is no longer an option.
At a place like ICN, you have two flights....easier to manage.
Same for AMS. So many flights, that it can fall apart quickly, but BRU or ZRH? A much smaller chance of things going sideways.
I also do not like that you cannot view the active stand by list for AMS either.

For my South American options, I love GRU.
Cheap and easy ZEDs on Gol, and not much competition since one needs a Brazil visa.

I did not read the post was referencing DL..

How to fly Non-Rev
Dear all,

Thanks for being such a great community!

I am fairly new to the non-rev lifestyle and as such, have never non-rev'd before.

Is there a detailed guide with tips/tricks one could use to get familiar with it? Specifically, things like where to check-in, things to do/no do at the airport, people who are the most helpful, things to ask for to help your chances, pre-airport information, and other tid-bits that as a rev pax I would never think of.

Thanks!

OP didn't, I did.

OP wanted "tips/tricks", so I shared some of mine.
