Well, here I sit in SLC watching one flight leave without me. Problem is I would have made it but I was at another gate trying a different flight. The one flight was delayed and by the time I found out there was no way for me to make the other flight. Numbers wise, the other flight that I would have made-I would have been 24th on the standby list with something like 5 seats. After all is said and done there must have been many no shows as the flight left with 11 open seats. Strange thing is they still showed 5 non revs waiting for seats-must have been no shows and since they were the last of the pack they did not delete them from the system.

Now, because this flight I am waiting for is 1 hour late I have to decide on this flight (50 seats) oversold by 2 and I am #1 on the standby list or the other flight that will now leave at the same time due to the delay, this flight is a 150 seater and I am #18 on the standby list and it is oversold by 1. Problem is the last flight that I would have ended up making looked worse for numbers. I hope I do not pick the wrong flight, cross my fingers. Still do not know what one I will try. I will look at numbers again about 40 minutes before the flights to see what looks better.
