Plane ticket site

Postby tennm1980 » Tue Feb 07, 2006 1:17 pm

Im hoping someone here by chance can help me out. A few weeks ago I found a website on the net, basically you fly a "standby" type situation to certain airports, at VERY cheap fares. (Since then I have completely forgotten the web address, and searching never pulls it up). They let you know 24hrs in advance whether or not you actually get the seat, and they had something like a 85% success rate. My job is flexible, and this could work for me sometimes for leisure. If anyone has any info, or anything similar, I would be eternally grateful.
