How often do people cancel flights? Garuda Indonesia, particularly. Average per flight?

Question

I'm on standby for a flight I really need to get on.

What's the likelyhood of me getting there on the flight?

Answer 1

Give it your best shot.  If it's out of Jakarta or a foreign city, you should be OK.

This happened to me some years ago and at the counter I was told if I upgraded my ticket I could get a seat.  When I got on it was only about 40% full.  But others that did not pay were not allowed on.

Good Luck!
