The fact is in todays environment the buisness travler and companies are not paying a premium for their fares..
For the most part if you were what we call BUISNESS passenger you would be paying the higher fare and would not be affected by the new rules.
The fact that your company or yourself made the decesion to cut cost and are trying to save, is unforunate for yourself
... Pay full fare and youll get all that u say you have lost

I have a question. If my daughter spends $150.00 on a concert ticket, and misses the concert because she got a flat tire and had to wait for the tow truck, who is going to give her the money back or credit her towards the next concert??
By the way, it was a shock to me as well that concert tickets have reached the heights they have. $150.00 for a 2hr show is quite normal it seems for the teenage idol boy bands these days if you actually want to "see" them on stage.
What about the NBA ticket or hockey ticket at $40-100 a pop. If I miss the game, do I get credit for the next game? Will they play that game again tomorrow for me so I can try again?
Anyone see something similar here or did I just waste my time again?

A customer's seat isn't subject to cancellation and reassignment (or resale to someone else) until within 10-40 minutes of departure (varies for domestic vs. international flights). This means a potential new customer couldn't buy a ticket for that no-show customer's seat until within this timeframe.

Tom, let me say that we do appreciate your buisness and those who pay 1/4 of the fare u pay as well ! The fact is in todays environment the buisness travler and companies are not paying a premium for their fares.. ALthough they can be somewhat higher you get to do certain things that a person paying a cheaper price doesnt ! In your case i assume your a preferred passennger( no pun intended there). For that ther is a higher price. sir you receive many more choices of non stop flights. Flexablity in your travel arranging.... Upgrades, free coupons, boarding priority, early service aboard the aircraft etc etc .. The very things your complaining about are the disadvantages and pain that our new rules are having on you. For the most part if you were what we call BUISNESS passenger you would be paying the higher fare and would not be affected by the new rules. The fact that your company or yourself made the decesion to cut cost and are trying to save, is unforunate for yourself and im sure you had your reasons. No body blames you there ! OUr company is reorganizing and although we have and will make mistakes, if you would like full service you have to pay full price just as if you went to norstoms and paid 150 dollars for a sweater or walmart if u decided to save some money ! By no means am i comparing us to norstroms because norstroms were not but even they are having problems! I agree we needed to adjust out pricing policy at the same time we announced these new rules and it wouldve made more since. But untill then please for our sake and yours ! Pay full fare and youll get all that u say you have lost

I think if you look at the posters (dejavu) you will notice a trend to those telling you to take a hike. Out of how many posters here have you heard that? Not how many POSTS they have made, but overall number of different posters here. Most of us realize whats important and thats someone is in the seat regardless of what your total $ was for the year.
Regarding the no standby rule. I wonder how much of this is to get people to fork out the $100 to get confirmed on the flight vs waiting around the airport? I know often people ask how it looks and if its got a couple of seats they say they'll take their chances, where now, if they want to get on no matter what, they'll be paying for it.
