Default Cheap flights /last seats/ ?

Hi,
I heard about possibility of buying last tickets just before plane departs
(if there are few not occupied seats i heard that airlines sell them

really
cheap just before departure - at least in Frankfurt). Is this right?? Can
anyone tell me more about it?? And maybe someone knows how often there are
not fully occupied planes from Frankfurt to Mexico City?? And maybe
something like this has its own name??
Thanx for all answers,
best regards -SourcuS


It's called flying standby, and most of the time you end up paying much
more, not less.
