I may have to consider "Fly Later" this week. I would not be at the airport sixty minutes before my original flight.

I note that "Fly Later" should be available on the app same day, or I can call.

Do any have recent experince with this?

Why 60 minutes?
Isn't the bag drop deadline 30 minutes before departure?
