I don’t understand how someone gets put on standby. Is there some sort of standby ticket? If so, how.. and do people really go through all the hassle of going to an airport while having a possibility of going home?

Similar to others comments I live in the Eastern US but had a lot of accounts in California. I’d book a ticket from Monday-Thursday but many times I’d finish by Wednesday evening. So I’d check if the earlier flights were full. If not I’d just go stand bye. If they were near full I’d pay the change fee to make sure to get a seat. Some places & times you can be almost certain not everyone will show up (LAX for a 5:30 flight, for example. Someone’s going to miss due to freeway traffic.)
