Took the $30 standby ticket instead of paying $120 for a direct flight and met a guy who changed my whole trip
Two weeks ago I was stuck at the Denver airport after a wedding, staring at a $120 direct flight home or a $30 standby seat with a 4 hour layover in Kansas City. I picked standby because $90 is $90, and I figured I could just read a book in the terminal. Turned out the flight got delayed twice, and I ended up sitting next to a retired park ranger named Dale who talked my ear off about free campsites in southern Utah. By the time we landed I had a hand drawn map on a napkin and a new plan for my next vacation. The whole thing cost me an extra 6 hours but way less stress than I expected. Anyone else had a cheap choice turn out way better than the expensive one?
