The pre boarding call was followed immediately (less than 5 seconds later) by the general boarding call. Priority in the purple lane and rows 15-30 in the red lane.
Yup!
Well… if you’re working in the lounge in the middle of an email or whatever, the extra 5 minutes does sometimes matter. Or just on a phone call.
I asked at the gate because previously the lounge seemed to be calling boarding without checking at the gate. Was arriving almost universally before boarding commenced, sometimes 15 minutes early. And if you’re doing this every week the 5-15 minutes were becoming an annoyance (giving up a seat in the lounge to have to stand at the gate).
So I wanted to know if this had started again. Turns out it wasn’t the lounge this time, but the gate agent.
But that’s why I posted here, because i thought maybe some folk would appreciate the time to get on early and snag bin space. But then thinking about it, those wanting bin space could time their own departure from the lounge?
