Delta starts back-to-front boarding process during coronavirus pandemic
Delta seeks to improve social distancing with a boarding procedure change. Will it also improve the speed and efficiency of boarding? (www.foxnews.com) More...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
...but remember, they still have to let 1st class, premier, super premier, super duper premier, super duper premier plus, super premier plus gold, silver, and bronze, active military (I support this one), people named Fred who look important, people who need extra time, people travelling with people who need extra time, families, people travelling with families, people who wished they had families, people with a lot of miles, people with less miles but spend a lot, people who don't have many miles, don't spend a lot, don't fly a lot, but paid the fee to get on early.....and then we will board from the back of the plane forward....oh wait, everyone's on....now if we can only get those over-sized carry-ons into the overhead bins...but wait...they can be checked in for free at the gate...bahaha to the fools who checked them curbside and paid for the service....you can't even get on early....but that's another post :-)
That sums it up pretty accurately. It's the airlines' version of participation trophies for everyone (with the obvious bona fide exceptions, of course).
I figured out the baggage check thing a while back, but at my age, it all boils down to whether or not I feel like dragging my (always conforming) carry-on all the way down to "gate 974 south wing G."

Classic, love your comment.

I've flown twice in the last week on Delta (for essential work). I rolled my eyes when they announced this and then was amazed when everyone in first class actually waited to board last. This happened on both flights. Most of the passengers were wearing masks too. I guess fear is a powerful motivator.
