But having only one jetway is pathetic, is it not? Surely it is much faster to have two? I've been on many aircraft where the F and J pax board through one door and the others simultaneously through another. The ideal seems to be SFO where they board F and J directly from the lounge (although I suppose that means Golds and Silvers who for some unearthly reason are in longhaul Y board through the least convenient door).
I was being driven round T5B the other day (all the way round) to get to an off jetty stand and I would estimate that only about half the gates had dual jetties!
