Here it is. This is one of the few moves that actually makes sense. Southwest doesn’t allow standby at all unless you purchase a full fare flight. On American and other traditional airlines, there are usually huge lists of people waiting to stand by. Often people will book the last flight of the day and then show up early. Too many standby passengers can really slow down the boarding process.
This will hit business travelers the hardest, since they are more likely to book a late flight and leave early if a meeting or conference ends early.
