Starting October 26, United says that after the initial boarding groups enter, window seat passengers in economy class without frequent flyer status will board next. They’ll be followed by those in middle seats, and passengers in aisle seats will board last.
Having passengers shuffle down the jetway and fumble their way into the cramped seats of a commercial flight is one of the most time-consuming, logistical nightmares that major US airlines execute thousands of times each day. Now, the airline with the most planes will start packing in passengers using a new method. United Airlines says its six-group boarding procedure will be “improved to save up to two minutes of boarding time.
” The move is the latest change in boarding procedures by a major airline in the United States. American Airlines switched to a nine-group boarding system in 2017 and made some tweaks to that system in 2023. Earlier this year, Southwest Airlines, which doesn’t assign seats, announced changes to its three-group boarding system by limiting the number of passengers who could buy early bird check-in slots in order to snag a better seat.
