[P]The change in pricing was paying off today. On 3 flights I worked this afternoon we had a total of 14 people who paid the standby fee. Most of these people were off the cruise ship and if it had been $100 would probably not have paid to standby. Instead, we made $350 extra today on these 3 flights.[BR][BR]Now, about that FF on a Z ticket today who wanted to [STRONG]pay[/STRONG] to upgrade to the West Coast......

[P][/P]Agreed. I think US saw the light on this one and realized that few were willing to pony up to 50% of the ticket price to standby. $25 is much more realistic.[BR][BR]And from a cost standpoint, there is some expense involved in rebooking, isn't there? The CRS has the be updated, new tickets issued, etc.
