A Standby is a Reserve who is required to report to the airport without a specific flight assignment. In addition to being assigned directly to an open Standby position, a Reserve assigned to a trip may be reassigned to Standby after arriving at the airport if, for example, the trip cancels or if a Ready Reserve has unknowingly been displaced by a Lineholder more than 15 hours prior to check-in. 

Acknowledgement Screen for Standby Reserve Assignments 

An example of the Reserve Acknowledgement screen for a Standby Reserve assignment is shown below. In the example, the Reserve has been assigned to Standby at LAX starting at 1800 on August 14th. Again, you will need to either “Acknowledge & Delete” or Acknowledge & Save” the advisement in order to proceed.
