Happened to me in MAD recently. They'll put cargo on until the next pallet puts us over max gross wt. Then they'll know how many pounds of non-revs they can put on to take it right up to max. So, often a few get on, but no one knows until just before they close it up. The Capt has almost no control, in case you're wondering. There was one a few years ago that refused to leave unless her husband got on, so they bumped cargo. Most of us can't get away with that.

Was she the Captain? There is no reason why anybody should get away with this. A quick call from the origin station to Flt. Ops. should resolve the issue on the spot.

On a 767- 12 in first & 3 in coach. 2 standbys. As of right now (9:09est 3/17) on the airport standby, there are 56 open seats. You should be good.
