Wtf is the point of that? Its the same plane, isn't leaving any time sooner if I board earlier.
Its not like a cruise ship where boarding an hour earlier means I can jump in pool while others are still getting on board.
Because people are morons and will pay an extra few hundred just to get into the tube first.
Or your bag will go into the overhead, and you'll be the first off the plane, especially when you have a tight connection. That 1A is getting to your next flight. That 38F is f'ed.
Because the overhead bins are full by the time the plane is half boarded? That's all I got.
