Do people even follow the boarding order? Sometimes I can't hear what they say and I just get in line anyway, and I've never had an issue. Obviously people mostly follow it, and it wouldn't work if nobody listened to it, but I'm not sure that the gate attendants care if a few people queue at the wrong time.
Also, queuing order is only about who goes first. If you're in an early section, but show up late, you can still get in line. So in this proposed system you can still have window seaters showing up late and defeating the whole point of having them board first.
- Symbiote 3y agoSeveral airports I use in Europe enforce it, as the automatic gates where you scan your boarding pass won't open unless the group has been called to board.
- iofiiiiiiiii 3y agoI recently saw people get rejected at the gate when they tried to board ahead of time in Frankfurt, so it sounds like they are starting to enforce it.
- zucked 3y agoI’d not seen it widely enforced before this year, but on several recent flights with several airlines (including United) the gate agent has had to turn people back to wait their turn. I’m all for it.
