what is flight listing ?
Hello all, So today I have become eligible for ZED tickets through my wife who works for Saudia Airlines..
after looking around online I keep seeing people talk about "listing" and even the airline sites talk about it, when I mention it to my wife she says she has never heard of it??
what is the purpose of listing and what happens if you don't list??
thanks in advance!
Your best bet for future travel would be to have your wife contact her employee travel department for info about listing on various airlines. There are different processes depending on the pass agreement with the airline in question. They are usually happy to answer the questions on how and when to list for various airlines.Originally Posted by simon1lee2002

Advises airline what flight you will standby for
A listing tells the airline exactly which flight/date you will stand by for. Depending on the system your airline uses to enable you to buy ZED fares, sometimes the listing must be created separately after ticket purchase (even though you chose the flight/date during ticket purchase). It is quite confusing and you must pay attention closely during these transactions. Without a listing, (and sometimes without you checking-in as well), your name will not be on the standby list at the airport. Most airlines want the standby process to be self-serve. They don't want agents time spent on non revs. So often these processes can't/won't be done by agents. Again, this depends on your airline and the airline you will ZED on. ZED fares are an excellent benefit and worth the time/complexity to use them. I used one this week when I didn't get on my own carrier.

Important, write your ticket number and bring it with you. Some airline will ask for it, QR or CX for example, even if you are listed.
