Default TravelNet an HKB’s

Hello. Trying to get my wife to come along on an overnight, and there are 11 open seats. If there are 11 HKB’s on the airport standby list, does that mean the flight is essentially full? Or are those seats already accounted for? Thanks in advance. I don’t want to drag her to the airport for a full flight

What does it say on the availability page. HK’s are revenue passengers without a seat assignment but a confirmed reservation. Flight number and date would help.

Seat availability includes HK’s. However, unassigned seats on the airport standby list do NOT include HK’s and revenue standby passengers will not appear on that list until they check in.

For example, if the seat availability shows 3 total available seats and the airport standby list shows 20 unassigned seats, there are 17 HK passengers that have not checked in and have not yet been assigned a seat.

That flight has 7 open seats, and the HK’s are included in that count. Good to go!

HKs have no bearing on the seat availability. If you use TravelNet the first page after hitting “search” takes into account all HKs. There are certain codes like C, SDSB and others that are not taken into account on that but HKs have a confirmed seat, they just don’t know which seat.

Not anymore. The seat availability on the search results has included HKs for years

For at least a decade.
