I used to do that all the time back in the 90s for flights from London to Ireland. Check in and offer myself as a voluntary standby if needed. A good 50% success rate. Price back then was 100 sterling and a seat on the next flight a couple of hours later. Had a girlfriend get 300 sterling and a seat to the same airport in Spain 6 hours later.

The $400 or even $800 for losing a full day is incredibly cheap. Want people to be inconvenienced for a full day. Then make it worth their while.
