I have a pretty high success rate getting models to show up for me and a crew that works for me regularly, so even on the days a model flakes outright people tend to be understanding and I manage to limit my losses as much as posible. Still, even occassionally losing a couple hundred or few hundred dollars due to a no-show really blows. I haven't had to pay a kill fee myself in a very long time. I have had agents make a model reimburse me for an outright no-call, no-show day if I re-book the model for another job and deduct it from her pay. That's usually the easiest way to get a model to resolve those situations and recoup one's losses.
