American and Delta Are Mixing Up Their Boarding Procedures


Skift Take

Passengers flying on American and Delta may notice new boarding procedures this month. Now's a good time to double check that boarding pass.

Both American and Delta made changes to their boarding process within the past month in an effort to simplify and expedite the passenger loading. American's changes, which officially went into effect on March 1st, were made to better segment the numerous priority travelers that were formally grouped into one or two boarding zones. Moving forward, American now separates travelers into nine boarding groups star
