standby is a first come first serve thing and of course not garunteed. Also most airlines I dont think let you but just a standby ticket

[MrMon]

Leaving tomorrow morning at 8:30 AM is $434, non-stop, puts you in Vegas at 11:30 AM. That's returning 1/2. Pretty widely available. Return on 1/4 and the price goes down to $317, same departure. America West.

Here's an alternative if you don't mind driving to TF Greene.

I make the Las Vegas - Boston trips regularly to visit family.

This appears to be Delta's daily non-stop flight. It tends to take 5.5 hours from Boston to Vegas. It almost always arrives early. The return non-stop flight tends to leave at about 10pm Vegas time and takes 4.5 to 5 hours, arriving in Boston at about 6am.

I'm always struck by how the much more convenient non-stop flight is always the cheapest option. Regularly, it's more than $100 cheaper than one-stop or two-stop flights.

It's basically a no-frills flight in coach.
