A major airline has revealed its plan to help reduce the amount of time the plane spends sitting on the ground.
As of next week, United Airlines economy passengers sitting in the window seat will board the plane first — a move that the US-carrier says will shave up to two minutes off boarding time.
The airline was using WILMA up until 2017 when it introduced basic economy seating and had a computer system that only supported a five-group boarding structure. There’s also no change for the pre-boarding group that includes travellers with disabilities, unaccompanied minors and active-duty military.
While it may not seem like a lot, it can make the difference between a flight being on time or late and resulting in penalties.
